Why Mapjack.com might be a killer
MapJack.com has an attractive interface with an image of the famous wharf in San Francisco. The site is easy to navigate and has a thorough help section which defines all of the sites functions. The seamless interactive panoramas are what make the site extra special. These graphics really make you feel like you are out on the streets of San Francisco walking around. It is nice that there is the keyboard navigation as well besides the blue buttons, so that users can choose between the two options to navigate.
Mapjack.com In their own words
“Jack may look like an ordinary guy, but he sure gets around, with the help of us of course -- a small team dedicated to high quality Immersive Street-Side Imagery, and bringing mass coverage online.
Mapjack.com showcases a new level of mapping technology. What others have done with NASA budgets and Star Wars-like equipment, we've done on a shoestring budget, along with a few trips to Radio Shack. Specifically, we developed an array of proprietary electronics, hardware and software tools that enable us to capture an entire city’s streets with relative ease and excellent image quality. We have a complete low-cost scalable system encompassing the entire work-flow process needed for Immersive Street-Side Imagery, from picture gathering to post-processing to assembling on a Website.
Jack’s on a mission, on foot, by car, and by boat. Our coverage area doesn’t stop street-side, we also include walking areas such as Parks, Universities and famous walking streets. San Francisco is only our starting point, more coverage and more cities coming soon.”
