THANKS TO GOOGLE,YOU MAY SOON BE ABLE TO VISIT CARLSBAD CAVERNS WITHOUT SETTING FOOT OUT OF YOUR HOUSE. A GOOGLE MAPS CREW IS PUTTING TOGETHER WHAT THEY CALL A STREET VIEW SPECIAL COLLECTION THAT'LL INCLUDE 360-DEGREE PHOTOS OF THE CAVE. IT'S THE FIRST IN A SERIES OF PHOTOGRAPHS OF NATIONAL PARKS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
GOOGLE CREWS WENT INTO THE CAVERNS ON JUNE 17TH AND WILL STITCH TOGETHER PHOTOS TO CREATE A PANORAMIC IMAGE OF EACH SPOT INSIDE. OUTSIDE, THEY USED A CAMERA TRUCK TO PROVIDE A VIRTUAL TOUR OF HUNDREDS OF POINTS ALONG THE MAIN CORRIDOR OF THE PARK.
