Google Street View Car Spotted in Paranaque City

Since its launch in January 2014, Google Street View, which has been popular for making it so much easier to virtually tour streets and places in the U.S. with this technology, brought the same technology to the Philippines.  For the 1st time, Google Street View capturing tools were going to capture Philippine streets and locations.  The Google Street View car started going around taking imagery to attach to Google maps.  And in places where the Google Street View car couldn't fit (think eskinitas and other terrain that a car couldn't traverse), there was a backpack version of the Google Street View device where a person could just strap the backpack and walk around capturing the same imagery.

Last week, the Google Street View car was spotted along Dona Soledad entering the Skyway from Bicutan in Paranaque City and exited somewhere around Magallanes in Makati City.

 If you've seen it elsewhere in Paranaque City or around the Philippines, post a comment and let us know where you saw it.
