It will be possible to have a walk around the campus of Debrecen from anywhere in the world, since Google selected the University of Debrecen to be included in the so-called Special Street View Collection. It means that besides having a walk in the streets of Paris, watching the historic sites of New York or exploring the Taj Mahal, it will be no more than a click to arrive to the campus.
The Special Street View Collection includes panoramic photos of 360 degree of world heritage spots, museums and other edifices, which can be accessed at Google Maps and Google Earth.
The pictures of Street View are taken by a car equipped with a camera. Given that the car cannot approach some interesting points of interest, Google developed special vehicles – tricycle, hand cart and snowmobiles, that get close to these spots as well.
The special hand cart was shooting photos for two days of the Main Building, at the Ceremonial Court, at the Assembly Hall, at the Rector’s Council Hall and at the Library’s reading room.
