Method and System for Navigation to Interior View Imagery from Street Level Imagery
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for displaying imagery associated with an interior of a geographic object, the method comprising:
- presenting a viewport on a display of a computing device that displays at least a portion of interactive panoramic imagery of a geographic area, the interactive panoramic imagery depicting a geographic object in the geographic area;
receiving a user input controlling a selecting object in the viewport, the user input positioning the selecting object proximate the geographic object; and
presenting a preview image associated with an interior view of the geographic object overlaying the selecting object in the viewport.

Abstract
Systems and methods for navigating and displaying imagery in a geographic information system for displaying interactive panoramic imagery are provided. According to aspects of the present disclosure, tools are provided for navigating from an exterior view to an interior view of a geographic object depicted in the interactive panoramic imagery. A preview image associated with the interior of the geographic object can be provided to the user to help the user decide whether to navigate to the interior of the geographic object. For instance, a preview image of the interior of the geographic object can be presented overlaying or within a selecting object in the viewport when the user positions the selecting object proximate a geographic location that has associated interior view imagery.

14. A computing device for displaying imagery associated with an interior of a geographic object, the computing device comprising:
-
a display device; one or more processors; and at least one memory, the at least one memory comprising computer-readable instructions for execution by the one or more processors to cause the processors to perform operations, the operations comprising; presenting a viewport on the display device that displays at least a portion of interactive panoramic imagery of a geographic area, the interactive panoramic imagery depicting a geographic object in the geographic area; receiving a user input controlling a selecting object in the viewport, the user input positioning the selecting object proximate the geographic object; presenting a preview image associated with an interior view of the geographic object within the selecting object in the viewport; receiving a user interaction with the selecting object indicative of a request to view interior view imagery associated with the geographic object; and transitioning to a display of interior view imagery of the geographic object in the viewport. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)
