Google Street View officially launches operations in Georgia

In collaboration with the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development of Georgia and the Innovation and Technology Agency, Google Street View officially launches operations in Georgia.

As part of the project, Google's specialised camera teams will capture 360-degree panoramic images in 24 cities across Georgia over the next 12 months, starting from March 2025.

The project aims to cover 15 000 kilometers, encompassing major urban centers such as Tbilisi, Batumi, Kutaisi, Rustavi, Akhaltsikhe, Mtskheta, Telavi, Zugdidi, Gori, Ozurgeti, Mestia, and others, with a primary focus on roads and highways.

The publication of the 360-degree panoramic images of Georgian cities is scheduled to begin in 2026. This will enhance navigation and significantly contribute to the development of tourism by allowing visitors to preview Georgia and better plan their trips.

Street View images will only include public property, as well as private areas where photography permission has been granted. Additionally, Google will provide easy-to-use tools for individuals to request the blurring of their homes, vehicles, or themselves and to flag inappropriate or unwanted images for review and deletion.
