Google Street View in Uruguay
Google's Street View program in Uruguay began with the filming of streets and roads on 26 June 2015.[1] On 2 December 2015, many of the country's cities were made available online, including Montevideo, Salto, and Ciudad de la Costa.[2] On 3 February 2016 coverage was expanded significantly.
