bing aerials do not open

[jtrebilcock]

streetview works fine but the link to bing aerials just causes window to appear white

[enricofer]

It's due to API break. But recoverig the webapp with the same features it's a tough deal.

[SteveLowman]

Issue confirmed. It's a shame - this was a very useful facility.

[enricofer]

Migrating plugin to QGIS3 only, I dropped bing and switched to google maps oblique: https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/tree/master I backported this feature to QGIS2 with some issues on wich I'm working on. QGIS2 version is forked from master and you can download it from https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/tree/v7.4 Please download, test and report issues.

[jtrebilcock]

QGIS2 version returns the following error under manage and install plugins : This plugin is broken No module named go2streetview-7.4

[enricofer]

It appears a bad installation. Try to replace the content of your existing go2streetview plugin folder with the content of downloaded zip https://gis.stackexchange.com/questions/127785/how-to-install-qgis-2-6-plugins-offline

I did what you suggest. But there is "ImportError: No module named resources_rc" Full messagebox text attached.

Could you test this please: https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/archive/v7.4.zip I can see from your exception trace that you are using qgis standalone under windows. did you try the plugin with qgis from osgeo4w installer?

[SteveLowman]

Still the same error, or very similar, as attached. This is now in the official plugin repository, so my colleagues are also now receiving the same error.

I only use the standalone LTR. I am not currently working as a developer, so I do not use the osgeo4w installer.

[enricofer]

Could you please confirm that this does not throw exceptions: https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/archive/v7.5.zip

[SteveLowman]

Sorry, deleted previous comments, where I must have pasted into the wrong plugin folder. This time, there is no Python exception, but instead, it thinks this is version 8, not 7.5.

[enricofer]

Sorry, I confused forks and I messed it... Now it's ready: https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/archive/v7.5.zip

[enricofer]

I received a PR to solve the issue in another way: https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/pull/34 Please, Could you test it? https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/archive/v7.4.zip

[SteveLowman]

Yes, the #34 works. The resolution of the Google aerial photography is very low with a heavily pixelated image until you zoom out. Bing aerial has always had higher resolution photography. However, this version is now working without any exceptions, thank you.

[enricofer]

well, I will publish it. The aerial imagery quality varies too much between world zones.

New version of https://github.com/enricofer/go2streetview/archive/v7.4.zip works with QGIS 2.18.16 64 bit standalone on Windows 7 SP1 64 bit. There is only a warning in the Python warning tab of the Log messages panel when the plugin is enabled:

Hi Enrico. Did you publish the corrected one? It seemed to work when I first reinstalled, but now I have restarted the application and still getting the same stack trace, as attached.

Go2StreetView could not load - messagebox text 30012018a.txt

[enricofer]

I have not published it yet. I will name the new release v7.4.1

[enricofer]

published now: Plugin go2streetview approval by pcav. The plugin version "[481] go2streetview 7.4.1" is now approved Link: http://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/go2streetview/

[agiudiceandrea]

go2streetview 7.4.1 works, but remain the Python warning reported in my previous comment.

[enricofer]

I'm not worried about it. It is related to PyQt4 uic module and I can't do nothing to fix it.

[andremano]

From this discussion I understand that Bing's Bird Eye was definitely abandoned? How about Google oblique, any chance of having it? Thank you for this great plugin!
