	Hi All, The following We Get Around Network Forum discussion was published in May 2017 in the WGAN Forum here. It's great backstory for WGAN-TV Live at 5 today (Wednesday, 18 October 2017) about pricing Matterport to Google Street View publishing. Best, Dan -- Video: Matterport Senior Director, Product Kirk Stromberg announces Matterport to Google Street View publishing at the Google Street View Summit in Tokyo (10-11 May 2017). Highlights Related to Google Street View ✓ Automated: Matterport to Google Street View ( "Push Button Publishing" ) ✓ Matterport does the stitching and linking (constellation) ✓ Scan data also uploaded to Google Street View ✓ Street View Beta Program: Free, "early summer" (Sign Up) ✓ Multi-level navigation within Google Street View Scan once: publish 8 ways: 1. 3D 2. VR 3. Google Street View 4. Point Cloud (.pts) 5. Still images 6. 2D Floor plans 7. Teased in presentation: "trailers" and other digital derivative works to use for social sharing 8. Teased in presentation: measurements Automatic Google Street View placement (based on address); with a "nudge" to orientate (align) on the Map. As easy as 1-2-3: confirm address, orientation (footprint) and publish This is Very Exciting: Improved 3D Transitions ✓ blended 2D/3D Transitions ✓ Future: Improved Street View Transitions ✓ Includes Depth Data ✓ XDM and 3D Transitions (XDM is an open standard for the transfer of 2D and 3D data) Matterport data is exported in the XDM format. The use of the Matterport data will enable smoother transitions between scan locations (360º photos) versus "jumping" from 360º to 360º photos. This creates a "more realistic flow" as the user "walks" through the space (Look at the point cloud to mesh to mashed up with imagery in the video.) Teased in Presentation ✓ Matterport Business Listings on Google Street View Program will be announced Summer 2017 ✓ Machine learning automation for "capturing" best still imagines and room recognition -- Hi All, Matterport enabling publish to Google Street View is a seminal moment in the history of Matterport. The ability to capture once and publish in many ways – including Google Street View - dramatically adds value to a Matterport Service Provider business. I will write more on this topic. This is a "must watch" video (above).

✓ Custom Matterport Space (Matterport) and reach and exposure on Google Street View
✓ Easy, Fast, Simple and Seamless to publish to Google Street View

✓ Easy as 1-2-3 (confirm address, tweak alignment and press button to publish to Google Maps

✓ Helping Google Maps keep the world up-to-date
✓ easy, automated solution for various uses (3D, VR, Google Street View, floor plans, .pts)

My Thoughts

✓ Camera worth 10x as much as a result of this announcement
✓ Massive increase in viewership of Matterport Spaces via Google
✓ Seminal moment in the history Matterport: 10 years from now when we look back, we will say, "that was a defining moment in the history of Matterport ... because it added so much value to the eco-system."
