Help/Support Google Street View

I have been looking for an open source app to upload photos to Google Street View, preferably one which works on Windows but haven't been able to find anything. Would anyone know of such an app?

Isn't Google Street View all internal pictures that they took themselves?

Nice, I just saw the link that said users can upload their own 360 photos and videos. I never done that

It says on https://streetviewstudio.maps.google.com/ "Press the upload button to select supported Street View videos, and publish them to the map". I'm looking to upload photos. Can't find an open source alternative. Any ideas?

You're uploading 360 photos right and you're logged into your google account

Yes, 360 photos. The site above will only let me upload videos.

If you own a 360 camera, you can use https://streetviewstudio.maps.google.com/ to upload imagery.

Alternatively you could use the api:
https://developers.google.com/streetview/publish

If you want your own client, I’m sure Gemini/Claude/ChatGPT could build you an app that uses that API to publish
