    Google Maps Adds Disney Theme Parks to Street View

    You can now take a self-guided tour of Disney World and Disneyland right from the comfort of your smart phone and with out all of the long lines. Beginning today, you can now explore Disney Parks on Google Street View. Disney just launched a series of 360-degree panoramas featuring Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World Resort locations you’ll want to check out to help plan your next vacation.

    The new Disney Parks imagery on Google Street View includes Disney’s theme parks, water parks as well as a variety of areas at Downtown Disney and Disney Springs. Take a look below at Epcot from every angle.

    To create the 360-degree imagery at Disney Parks, Google used Street View Trekker, a wearable backpack with a camera system on top. The Trekker is worn by an operator and is moved through walkways and structures, automatically gathering images. Imagery is then stitched together to create the 360-degree panoramas you see today.

    Here’s a list of the locations that the Trekker’s captured:

    • Disneyland park, Disneyland Resort
    • Disney California Adventure park
    • Downtown Disney District
    • Magic Kingdom Park, Walt Disney World Resort
    • Disney Springs – Dining, Retail Locations
    • Disney’s Hollywood Studios
    • Pandora – The World of Avatar
    • Disney’s Animal Kingdom
    • Epcot
    • ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex
    • Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon Water Park
    • Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park
