Gemma found 7 seating locations from 165 Mapillary street-view photos of Kolkata, and the app used these to plan a 254-meter circular route with no point on the route more than 69 meters from a seat.
All 157 recent photos of that area in Kolkata come from the same person, covering only a few streets and about 40 locations, with no recent photos available for the surrounding eight areas, making 600-meter and 1-kilometer routes unachievable.
Mapillary is a crowdsourced street-view platform with fully open data, and photos and geographic coordinates can be obtained for free via its API, unlike Google Street View.
Images from open-licensed street view platforms such as Mapillary (owned by Meta) and OpenStreetCam are released under CC Creative Commons licenses, making them more friendly for research and secondary development.
