Google Adds Jersey City to Street View

Google Maps has added Jersey City to its "Street View," a version of their Google Maps service that incorporates ground level photography. The photos are shot using special cars with multiple cameras and then compiled by Google's software. The service started with just a few of the nation's largest cities including New York and Google's home of Mountain View, California.

Cities have been added slowly as the data is aggregated. However, privacy concerns have been raised. In one case, an entire town opted out of the Google Street View. In the case of that town, the streets were entirely privately owned. In another instance, Google's camera car drove up a private driveway.
