This is very interesting - it looks like the content's been created  
by a system like Cyclomedia, where a GPS-tracked car takes a panorama  
every hundred metres or so. A friend of mine who works in local  
government planning was working with it a while back.

There's one major annoyance with the Google version - they've  
completed ignored more than a decade of QTVR and made the pan  
controls work the opposite way round. Infuriating.
