Alternate visualisation mode : Google Street view driver

[routeconverter]

I'd like to propose and discuss a feature for RouteConverter : have a view of the map with street view, allowing a virtual "drive trough" of the map using image data of Google Street view.

Sounds interesting. Most people use Google Earth to replay where they've been, but StreetView gives much more detail about the street and its surrounding. Unfortunately, only the large cities are available with StreetView here in Germany.

This would allow for first-level road-checking of maps you plan before driving them to test (for if you would like to avoid certain roads like concrete and such or to verify which route is more scenic)

I know there are some web based scripts out which can do this (Google Maps Streetview Player which is open source) but generally they do not work well for this purpose : they play too fast and they leave too many gaps in between images.

Checkout the code and hack it into RouteConverter.
