The mapping of Hungary will start next week, Google cars are coming
On March 11, the California techie will start recording Hungarian cities and settlements on Google Maps again.
In the coming months, many cities in the country will be touched to update their views of cities, roads and highways on Google Maps. In Transdanubia, for example, the cities of Sopron, Székesfehér, Szekszárd, Pécs, Veszprém and Ajka, and in the eastern part of the country, Békéscsaba, Szeged, Karcag, Debrecen and Tiszaújváros will be affected, the company said in a statement.
With Google Street View, users can visit most Hungarian cities from anywhere, view many castles and chateaux, and even visit national parks in the digital space. The service map of Google Maps Street has been available in Hungary since 2013, the image material is constantly updated. The Street shows 360-degree views of the streets and natural and cultural attractions.
However, Google records not only the streets and roads, but also the pedestrian zones of several Hungarian cities, as well as other places inaccessible by car. Thus, users can virtually walk the streets of Pécs or Debrecen, visit the shores of Lake Balaton, the Aggtelek National Park, or take a trip to the Ópusztaszer National Historical Park.
And the repository of Budapest’s hidden treasures has recently been expanded: 360-degree camera footage of places such as Kincsem Park, the two halls of the Northern Vehicle Repair, the Eiffel Workshop, the Opera House’s largest auditorium, and the Transport Museum’s new exhibition space, Sunbathing lake.
As has been written, in order to enforce the rights to the protection of personal data, images are subjected to a special procedure prior to publication, which obscures people’s faces and license plates so that they will not be identifiable.
