The Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the tallest building in the world, is now accessible via Street View. Google used a variety of devices and techniques (including the “trekker“) to capture the building and it is absolutely amazing.
You can experience it by using the normal Street View tools in either Google Earth or Google Maps, though it’s a bit tricky to move to different floors. A better bet is to use this Street View gallery to check out the various locations that have been captured.
In addition, Google has created a nice video that shows some of the behind-the-scenes work that made this new imagery possible:
