Google Maps just turned 20, and we are reminiscing about our adventures taking Google Street View underwater! Our SVII camera was invented specifically for the task by Richard Vevers. It was the first of its kind, capable of taking consecutive 360-degree images while traveling kilometers at a time underwater. The camera has taken over a million images in over 30 countries, not just for Google Street View but also as a scientific record of reefs under threat from climate change.
