Google Street View has vast unmapped spaces. These volunteers are trying to fill in the blanks.
Some people have traversed thousands of miles with cameras strapped onto their backs, cars or even horses to share the streets and back alleys of their homes with the world through Google Street View.
The three joined a growing number of volunteers who decided to make it their mission to put these places on the map. While Kanhema borrowed a camera from Google through its camera loan program, he self-funded the project. For the people of Zimbabwe, he said his project has been received very positively because it helps make maps and driving times more accurate.
The pair said they also see it as a service to the diaspora community who leaves the South Pacific every year.
