(Google Maps)毫无疑问,谷歌地图是一项革命性的创新。带我回到几年前,我永远不会想到导航会这么容易。除了一个非常成熟的想法之外,谷歌地图(Google Maps)还提供了一些有趣的功能,比如记录当前的交通状况和街景(Street View),这是我们可以用来一瞥目的地的功能。谷歌地图(Google Maps)街景(Street View)中一个鲜为人知的选项是它允许用户回到过去,看看这个地方过去的样子。在本文中,我们将演示如何做到这一点。
(Travel)使用谷歌地图回到过去(Google Maps)
人们使用此功能来了解一个地方多年来的演变情况。Google收集了可追溯到 2007 年的历史数据,因此您可以看到 15 年前的图像。
您可以通过以下方式使用Google 地图(Google Maps)并查看过去各个位置的图像:
- 在您的计算机 (maps.google.com) 和搜索栏上打开Google 地图(Google Maps),输入您选择的位置
- 单击(Click)屏幕右下角的街景缩略图并将其拖动到您的位置以访问(Street View)街景(Street View)功能
- 左上角是您当前通过街景查看(Street View)的照片的日期。那里还将有一个带有下拉选项的时钟图标。单击(Click)底部箭头,您将看到一个时间线
- 滑块的历史可以追溯到 2007 年,因此您可以滚动浏览它以查看不同年份的位置图像
- 如果您想放大特定年份的图片,只需单击放大镜图标
如下图所示,时间戳为2014 年 5 月(May 2014)。如果您一直拖动时间滑块,它确实有助于观察演变。如果要返回当前图像,请将滑块拖动到其右上角。
这里需要注意的重要一点是,此功能并非在每个位置都存在,并且可能有几个没有历史数据的地标位置。如果没有您选择的地点的数据,这就是街景角的样子。已经发现,您可以使用的数据量是您居住地的函数。谷歌的街景(Street View)拥有一个不断扩大的庞大数据库,但如果您看不到时间旅行的选项,则意味着街景(Street View)仅通过您的位置一次。
这里要注意的另一件重要事情是,您的智能手机上不存在此功能。
为什么我无法在Google 地图上(Google Maps)查看街景(Street View)?
如果您无法在Google 地图上使用(Google Maps)街景(Street View)功能,有几种解决方案:
- 检查您所在地区是否提供街景(Street View)
- 使用兴趣点(Interest)(在您的位置,点击附近(Nearby),几个兴趣点,如餐厅和酒吧(Pubs),将出现)
- 使用谷歌搜索(Use Google Search)而不是谷歌地图(Google Maps)
希望这可以帮助!
How to travel back in time in Google Maps
Google Maps haνe been a revolutionary innoνation, no doubt about that. Take me a coυple of years back, and I would never have imagined that navigation would be this easy. On top of a very well-developed idea, there are some interesting features Google Maps offеrs like taking note of the prevailing traffic conditions and Street View, a function we can use to get a glimpse of our destination. A rarely known option in Streеt View of Goоgle Maps is that іt allowѕ users to travel back in time and see what the рlacе υsed to look likе in the past. In this аrticle, we will demonstrate how you can do that.
Travel back in time using Google Maps
This feature is used by people to see how a place has evolved over the years. Google has gathered historic data, dating back to 2007, so you can see images as old as 15 years.
Here is how you can use Google Maps and view images of various locations from the past:
- Open Google Maps on your computer (maps.google.com) and the search bar, type out the location of your choice
- Click on the Street View thumbnail on the bottom-right corner of your screen and drag it to your location to access the Street View feature
- On the top-left corner will be the date of the picture you’re currently viewing via Street View. There will also be a clock icon with a drop-down option there. Click on the bottom-facing arrow and you’ll be presented with a timeline
- The slider dates all the way back to 2007 so you can scroll through it to view images of a location in different years
- If you want to expand at a picture of a particular year, simply click on the magnifying glass icon
As you can see in the picture below, the timestamp is of May 2014. It really helps to observe the evolution if you drag the time slider all the way through. If you want to get back to the image at present, drag the slider to its right corner.
An important thing to note here is that this function doesn’t exist in every single location, and there may be several landmark locations for which there is no historical data. This is how the street view corner looks if there is no data of the place of your choice. It has been found that the amount of data at your disposal is a function of where you live. Google’s Street View has a huge database that is ever-expanding, but if you can’t see the option to time travel, it means Street View passed your location only that one time.
Another important thing to note here is that this function is not present on your smartphones.
Why can’t I get Street View on Google Maps?
If you are not able to use the Street View feature on Google Maps, there are several solutions in place:
- Check if Street View is available in your area
- Use the Points of Interest (On your location, click on Nearby, and several points of interest, like Restaurants and Pubs, will show up)
- Use Google Search instead of Google Maps
Hope this helps!
