What is Streetside imagery?
Streetside™ provides real-life perspectives by letting users travel down to the street level to explore locations almost as if you were standing there in person. Travel along streets, investigate building facades, and place pushpins precisely where you want them in 3D space, all in the Silverlight experience. With the December 2009 launch, Streetside is available in many urban areas across the continental U.S. To see Streetside in action, visit the Bing Maps beta site. Developers can get started with the files and documentation related to the beta Streetside imagery mode by visiting Microsoft Connect.
