Now it is the Federal District’s turn to enter the Google Street View radar.

Last Friday, my friend Raimundo Neto spotted one of the cars, taking pictures at the Eixo Monumental de Brasília, in front of the Buriti Palace, also near the Federal District Court of Justice (this one, on the other side of the road).

Unfortunately, he was behind the wheel and therefore cannot withdraw his smartphone Googlerola and photograph, to provide us with this blatant.

I searched YouTube, however, and found that other candangos filmed Google Street View cars in the federal capital. It increasingly seems clear that Google’s project is to photograph all Brazilian cities quickly.

I went to the official page of the service and saw that, currently, the following cities are being photographed in Brazil: Brasília, Cariacica, Vila Velha, Vitória, Aparecida de Goiânia, Goiânia, Alfenas, Araxá, Barbacena, Belo Horizonte, Betim, Brumadinho, Conselheiro Lafaiete, Contagem, Guaxupé, Igarapé, Itaguara, Itatiaiuçu, Juiz de Fora, Lavras, Montes Claros, Nova Lima, Nova Serrana, Oliveira, São Joaquim de Bicas, São José da Lapa, Vespasiano, Araucária, Cambé, Campina Grande do Sul, Cascavel, Colombo, Curitiba, Jacarezinho, Londrina, Maringá, Paranaguá, Pato Branco, Pinhais, Piraquara, Ponta Grossa, Pontal do Paraná, São José dos Pinhais, Toledo, Canoas, Caxias do Sul, Esteio, Ijuí, Pelotas, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande, Sapucaia do Sul, São Leopoldo, Uruguaiana, Araruama, Barra do Piraí, Belford Roxo, Cabo Frio, Campos dos Goytacazes, Duque de Caxias, Iguaba Grande, Itaguaí, Mangaratiba, Mosque, Niterói, Nova Iguaçu, Paracambi, Pinheiral, Queimados, Rio de Janeiro, Seropédica, São Gonçalo, São João de Meriti, São Pedro da Aldeia, Volta Redonda, Blumenau, Chapecó, Criciúma, Florianópolis, Itajaí, Join ville, São Bento do Sul, Araraquara, Araçatuba, Birigui, Caraguatatuba, Caçapava, Cosmópolis, Divinolândia, Holambra, Itapetininga, Itapeva, Jacareí, Jaguariúna, Leme, Lençóis Paulista, Marília, Mogi Mirim, Olímpia, Pirassununga, Pompéia, Presidente Prudente, Ribeirão Preto, Santa Cruz da Conceição, Santo Antônio de Posse, São José do Rio Preto, São José dos Campos, São Paulo, Ubatuba and Álvares Machado.
