Cameras equipped to the internet giant's Street View car have
been snapping away for the past 12 months and the result - a 360
degree of almost every street in the UK - was unveiled last
week.
Thanet residents and tourists can now take a virtual drive
across the isle, taking in sights such as the Royal Harbour at
Ramsgate, the Margate Harbour Arm and Viking Bay, Broadstairs.
Hundreds of people and thousands of vehicles have been pictured
by the roving cameras, although faces and number plates have been
blurred out.
Web users can also explore some of the country's top tourist
attractions such as Stonehenge, the Eden Project and Warwick
Castle, which were photographed by Google's three-wheeled off-road
bike last year.
To take a virtual tour of Thanet, enter a postcode or
destination at www.google.co.uk/maps
and drag the icon of the orange man onto the
map.
