For years the Faroe Islands were been left without Google Street View. Taking matters into our own hands, Visit Faroe Islands teamed up with our activist, Durita Andreassen, to start mapping out our beautiful islands using sheep equipped with solar-powered cameras, creating her very own Sheep View 360.

"When we started this project, we wanted Google Street View available in the Faroe Islands so we could share our beautiful country with the world. During the process, we fell in love with our own woolly version of Street View, so we are delighted that Google has decided to help us continue on the path to map out the Faroe Islands” 

- Durita Andreassen.

Following the launch of the project, thousands of faroese people urged Google to make the Faroe Islands a part of Google Street View, and their efforts have now proved fruitful. The Google Maps team finally arrived in the Faroe Islands in 2017 to help get the islands on the map with Street View.
