"The imagery was collected by a team of Googlers who travelled all over New Zealand to document every single public road in the country over the past year. The team drove Holden Astras, which had cameras mounted on a pole on the roof. "


Tourism New Zealand has selected a gallery of Street View images, available at maps.google.co.nz/streetview, that shows some of New Zealand's most popular tourist attractions and locations to the world.
