Parameters

  • lat - lattitude of street view location
  • lng - longitude of street view location
  • height and width define view dimensions. Defaults: width=600; height=450
  • heading - defines the horizontal angle between the camera's line of sight and the North direction, with 0 degrees pointing North. Values between 0 and 360 are permissible. Examples:
    • "0" degrees (default): The camera faces North.
    • "90" degrees: The camera faces East.
    • "180" degrees: The camera faces South.
    • "270" degrees: The camera faces West.
  • pitch - defines the angle variance "up" or "down" from the camera's initial default pitch, allowing you to control whether the camera looks up, straight ahead, or down. Values between -90 and 90 are permissible. Examples:
    • "0" degrees (default): The camera looks straight ahead, parallel to the ground.
    • "45" degrees: The camera tilts upward, showing higher parts of the scene.
    • "-45" degrees: The camera tilts downward, displaying lower parts of the scene.
  • fov - defines the field of view or the extent of the scene the camera can capture in a single view. It determines how wide or narrow the camera's perspective is. Values between 30 and 120 are permissible but may not work in all cases. Examples:
    • "30" degrees: A narrow field focusing on a specific area or object.
    • "90" degrees (default): A moderate field of view, capturing a balanced view of the surroundings.
    • "120" degrees: A wide field of view, providing a broad scene perspective.
