We here at Inferno have discussed how much further Google Earth and Google Maps can go. We now have Street View, so we can get 360° ground level view, but could we ever have a real time ground level view?

Well boffins have got us a step closer to a realization by augmenting various video camera footage on top of Google maps to give ‘a more interesting’ view of the world. And it works. OK, it’s a bit rough, but it has added another dimension to the already awesome Google open API.

So with this sort of technology taking it‘s first steps, does this mean in the future we can set up high definition web cams, maybe on mobile communication towers, plus open access to CCTV etc, and overlay them over Google maps, in order to give us a real time moving, 3D image of what is happening all over the surface of the world at any time?

Well it means it is certainly technically possible, but is it morally possible?
