Dublin Gets Immersive View
Immersive View lets you feel like you’re been magically transported to your destination even before you visit. The new ‘immersive view’ fuses billions of Street View and aerial images to create a detailed model of the world.
The new feature also lets you overlay helpful information on top like the weather, traffic, and how busy a place is. If you’re planning a visit to TCD, you can virtually soar over the campus and see where the entrances are.

With the time slider, you can see what the area looks like at different times of day. You can also use this feature to check what the weather will be like. You can even spot where it tends to be most crowded so you can have all the information you need to decide where and when to go.
If you’re hungry, glide down to the street level to explore nearby restaurants. You can even take a look inside to quickly understand the vibe of a spot before you book.
