Google goes to end of the Earth in new Street View of Ellesmere Island
It’s official. Google Street View has now gone to the ends of the Earth.
As part of a deal with Parks Canada, the internet giant is now showcasing Street View images of one of the remotest places on the planet — Quttinirpaaq National Park on the northern tip of Ellesmere Island.
“We want people to care about the places that we protect,” said Emma Upton, who manages the park. “Bringing it into people’s homes seemed a really good idea.
“It is a difficult place to reach.”
