As we continue to roll out more and more Streetside imagery for Bing Maps, I figured it was time to give my technical peeps out there a little sneak peak into how we create the Streetside user experience for Bing Maps. For those of you who don’t know, Streetside is the term for Bing Maps’ ground level, human scale imagery that is highly coveted for bringing users the full visual experience for a specific location. So, while our satellite imagery and orthographic aerial photography (Aerial map style) provide great context to accompany our vector-based raster maps (Road map style) and our oblique imagery (Bird’s Eye map style) is even higher resolution for increased zoom and cardinal rotation capabilities, Streetside brings you down to ground level (and you can go inside withPhotosynth :)). Anyhow, for those of you interested in how we use Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR) with photography (Photogrammetric processing) through a Silverlight interface and vector road information for reference points, check out my Channel 9 video with Bing Maps Program Manager Pasquale DeMaio as we talk shop about Bing Maps’ Streetside.

Adding streetside and enhanced birds eye to your applications

Well, it didn’t take long for us to add these features to the already robust set of APIs in the Bing Maps Platform, now did it? In case you’ve been in some analog state without Internet access you should first read, “Bing Maps Adds Streetside, Enhanced Bird’s Eye, Photosynth and More.” Starting today, you can download the required DLLs for adding Bing Maps Streetside(TM) and Enhanced Bird’s Eye to your applications. Let’s just get right to it, shall we?
First thing you need to do is download the new DLLs from Microsoft Connect. You will actually download a .MSI (Microsoft Installer) which will install the Bing Maps Silverlight Control Extended Modes Beta SDK (wow, that’s a mouthful) and also drop the Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.ExtendedModes.dll onto your hard drive typically at [Program Files (x86)]\Bing Maps Silverlight Control Extended Modes\Beta\Libraries\.
Second, there are new versions of Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.dll and Microsoft.Maps.MapControl.Common.dll. You will need to download this .MSI as well; however!, you will also need to uninstall the current version (yes, backwards compatible). The version you have is 1.0.0.0. You will now be using 1.0.1.0. This is very important as your application will not work if you aren’t using the new version of the DLL. [...]

Bing Maps Steals The Cool Crown From Google
On the road again ...
/Sik
The Empire Strikes Back ...

First, Bing Maps is introducing “Street Side” in 56 US metro areas, with the ambition to go global eventually. This is the Microsoft answer to Google Street View: immersive street-level photography that, like Street View, allows users to “walk down the street” and explore neighborhoods in cities. Microsoft began Street Side at roughly the same time as Street View but hadn’t released anything (to date) other than this limited demo site.
The environment that Microsoft has created is richer than Street View and brings “augmented reality” into Maps in a compelling way. Microsoft has also utilized its 3D mapping assets in creating the new experience. Here’s how the Microsoft press material describes the technology behind the new Maps experience:
Photosynth and Silverlight are the underlying technologies in Bing Maps that connect everything and help provide the more seamless experience. Based on Seadragon and Photo Tourism concepts, Photosynth lets us literally “stitch” together photographs to provide more realistic view of locations as they appear in real life. Photosynth-enabled Streetside imagery is built on geometric models that are reconstructed underneath the imagery to provide a truly 3D experience that shows locations as they are in real life.
The one “catch” is that you need to install Microsoft Silverlight to make it all work. But once installed the new Bing Maps beta site enables a wide range of experiences, search and discovery tools that haven’t been available (or maybe possible) previously.
In addition there’s an “apps gallery” that enable data overlays directly on the map. All of the current modules are Microsoft created but the company will enable third parties to integrate their content into Bing Maps (e.g., Yelp reviews) in the near term.
