The beginning - https://cloud.google.com/blog/big-data/2016/05/explore-the-galaxy-of-images-with-cloud-vision-api - of a realistic Virtual Earth - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Virtual_Worlds - which could dovetail with Google Street View/Maps/Earth and for ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/search/label/ethno-wiki-virtual-world-graphy?
I gave a keynote talk at GCP NEXT a couple of months ago, and as part of that, I demoed this nice visual explorer that folks at Google built to demonstrate the Cloud Vision API. You get to fly through a point cloud of tens of thousands of images, annotated and clustered automatically by Google's Cloud Vision API. As of today, this demo is now released to the public, so you too can play with it (requires a relatively recent version of Chrome).

You can learn more about the Cloud Vision API, which is now in GA ("General Availability") at https://cloud.google.com/vision/

Have fun!

Hi Josephine, 
Thanks for your email. 
I'm not in a position to help with your property claim, but World University and School, an online educational project I'm developing, is interested in developing an online university in Ghana in its main languages, and wiki (like Wikipedia) schools in all languages in Ghana. The free Creative Commons' licensed University degrees would be based on Massachusetts Institute of Technology OpenCourseWare's ~2300 course in English - http://ocw.mit.edu/index.htm - and partly in video - http://ocw.mit.edu/courses/audio-video-courses/ - but much more, and in fun ways, and focused on becoming economically beneficial to Ghanians. 

World University and School would like to create "education in your country" (per your email) for you that is highest quality and leads to your own economic success. 

Here's the beginning of the Ghana World University and School - http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/Ghana - not yet in Twi or other main languages in Ghana, but with plans to expand into all languages in Ghana beyond English and for free learning and degrees. 

Would you and your friends be able to begin studying for a free CC MIT-centric BA/BS degree online in the autumn of 2017 in English with other students from around the world? 

Best wishes, 
Scott

I have reasoned to writing this mail to seek for your immediate help if only you will not think otherwise because i do not know anything about you but, the fact is that I truly seek for somebody who can stand as my guardian of trust to lay claims to the sum my late father left for me before his untimely death. I humbly need your assistance in transferring this fund for my education in your country. Be kind enough to reply me so that we could discuss and i be willing to give further details upon your request. I shall forward to you all the necessary documents on confirmation of your acceptance and readiness to assist me on this project. I am also willing to compensate your effort at the end in achieving this goal with me schooling in your country while you invest some part of the total fund for your assistance and the help rendered.

The third extensive meeting on drought mitigation took place with the CM of Karnataka & officials from the state.

Urged the Karnataka Govt to give importance to desilting, farm tanks & check dams before the onset of the monsoon. This will be beneficial. CM Siddaramaiah briefed me about the steps taken for water management & their efforts to implement Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana. http://nm-4.com/pjho

Dear World Universitians,

I'm glad to be giving an IBM Cognitive Systems' talk (http://cognitive-science.info/community/weekly-update/) this Thursday at 7:30am PT/ 10:30am ET, as founder and president of World University and School, on "A Universal Translator as a Cognitive System, beginning as a Guidebook with Test" - to which you're invited.

The WUaS Universal Translator will help translate WUaS's wiki pages with CC MIT OCW in 7 languages from English into all countries' official languages, and much, much more in all 7,943 languages. Here's a WUaS example from English to German - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2016/04/coastal-sage-scrub-amazing-concerning.html - having used the Google Translate machine translator.

Best, Scott
