Custom Street View Panorama Tiles

  • This example showcases the use of custom Street View panoramas by adding a link to a panorama inside the Google Sydney office from a Street View outside the office.

  • It demonstrates how to register a custom panorama provider and use thelinks_changed event to add a navigation link to the custom panorama.

  • The custom panorama uses its own tile images, loaded using agetTileUrl function within theStreetViewPanoramaData object.

This example displays a Street View outside of the Google Sydney office. It addsanother arrow to the image, in addition to the default Street View navigationarrows, that points into Google Sydney and links to a custom panorama.
