Google's Newest Employees: Sheep

谷歌僱羊來工作

Google is getting a bunch of sheep to do its job.

最近谷歌僱了羣羊來工作。

That is, Google Street view is planning on bringing their services to the Faroe Islands with the help of the many sheep there, Google’s 360 degree cameras and some solar panels. The Google team landed last week on the island chain north of the U.K. and in a blog post that is stocked full of sheep puns, they said the animals are leading the way in photographing the lands. They're being helped out by residents who are attaching cameras to all sorts of things from wheelbarrows to kayaks.

谷歌街景打算僱一羣羊,讓它們扛上360度攝像頭和太陽能板,用來收錄法羅羣島的街景。谷歌團隊上週才第一次探索這個英國北部的羣島,他們發佈的博客裏充滿有關羊的俏皮話,說島上主要靠這些羊帶頭拍攝。從獨輪車到皮划艇,島上居民幫他們在能放的地方几乎都放上了攝像頭。

The project was actually started three months ago by Faroe Islands resident Durita Andreassen, who set out to document the 18 islands with the sheep. Andreeassen then applied for the Google Street View loan program that “is here to help you share 360 experiences from amazing places” and things progressed from there.

該計劃3個月前由當地居民Durita Andreassen提出,她說這些羊很適合去記錄18個島嶼的街景。後來,她申請谷歌街景“通過360度攝像頭幫你分享絕美風景”的項目,纔有瞭如此的進展。

As it turns out, you can visit quite a few quirky and amazing places using Google Street View. Here are a few of the best locations

事實證明,通過谷歌街景,你確實可以欣賞到稀有的絕美景觀。下面給大家列舉幾個好地方:

Cape Royds, Antarctica

南極的羅伊茲岬

At the Adelie Penguin Rookery, you can see a sunnier-than-expected South Pole landscape with plenty of penguins.

在阿德利企鵝棲息地,你可以看到比想象中陽光更充足的南極,那裏還有很多企鵝。

Count Mayo, Ireland

愛爾蘭梅奧

Here you can get a view of Ireland’s Ceide Fields, a picturesque sight of an archaeological site that dates back to the Stone Age. Points of interest include homes, tombs and other 6,000-year-old structures.

在這裏你可以欣賞愛爾蘭的Ceide高地。那裏有很多石器時代的建築:房屋、墳墓和其他6000多年之久的建築。

The Grand Canyon

科羅拉多大峽谷

If you’ve ever hiked the Grand Canyon, you know it’s tough. If you want to take it easy, you can rely on Google to take a jaunt down Bright Angel Trail in Arizona with these 360 degree views.

如果你去過科羅拉多大峽谷,就應該清楚,到那裏十分不易。藉助谷歌地圖360度攝像頭,你可以輕鬆穿過亞利桑那的亮天使步道,欣賞科羅拉多大峽谷的美景。

Palace Of Versailles

凡爾賽宮

With gold adorning every nook and cranny, you can take a virtual tour of the palace built by Louis XIV that really angered poor French people at the time.

借住谷歌街景,你可以真實感受金碧輝煌的凡爾賽宮,國王路易十四爲建造此宮殿還激起了民憤。
