In order to tackle locations which maybe otherwise inaccessible by a vehicle or a car, Google has now deployed a tricycle to tackle such places. These places include getting off the roads to reach trails, sidewalks university campuses and theme parks. This allows for reaching those areas better which people experience in their everyday lives and enables the heart of Toronto to be captured. Dynamic 3D images of the places in their real settings are captured by three 360-degree cameras, using laser beams, fitted on either direction of the cycle, including one facing towards the sky.

Google didn't immediately reveal specific locations photographed by the camera-mounted trike in Canada, saying it was still awaiting permission to release details about the private locations.

The company later released a list of 17 locations visited in Toronto and in nearby areas, including Toronto Island, Canada's Wonderland, Hamilton's McMaster University and a number of conservation areas.

Jonathan Chang,27, rode the Google Street View Trike and often gets mistaken for an ice-ceam vendor due to the huge white box fitted at the back of the tri-cycle. Instead people "actually get more excited" and begin waving in hopes of being captured for posterity on the company's famous panoramic map views according to Chang
