Google Street View is famous for the mapping cars, but the company also uses Trekker backpacks (seen on video here) and panoramic cameras to reach less-accessible areas of the world and to take us inside buildings. The latest building to see some Google Trekker love is the world’s tallest skyscraper, the 2,722-foot tall Burj Khalifa in Dubai …
You can explore nine different levels of the building, as well as fly around the outside.
As Google’s Business Photos program catches on, you’ll be able to take a virtual walk through an increasing number of buildings. Another interesting one to wander around is Google’s own data centres.
