Gaiagi Driver - 3D Driving Simulator including Street view and Birds view
The driving simulator follows the path created by the directions and shows the present position in different views. Following views are available:
upper left: Google Earth view
upper right: Google Map view. You can toggle traffic information as well as street view information as overlays.
lower left: Google Street view
lower right: Microsoft Birds view
Other features:
While not in driving mode you can navigate the Google Earth or Google Maps view while the other views are adjusted accordingly.
The config section allows you to control road overlay in earth view (default=off), buildings overlay in earth view (default=on), traffic overlay in maps view (default=on) and street view coverage in maps view (default=off).
You can right-click on the "Link" to copy the link location into the clipboard to share the current view with others.
Parameters:
?goto=location: You can append the parameter "goto" to the URL to start the simulator at a given location, e.g. ?goto=nyc
Remarks:
As there is a certain amount of data to be downloaded for the different views a decent internet connection is helpful for a good application experience.
In some areas street view and birds view are not available.
The driving simulator is derived from the driving simulator demonstration from Google.
