if you want to upload panoramas to google maps, you must use the mobile street view app for android or iOS
https://www.google.com/streetview/publish/
you can also use the app to add panos created with a DSLR etc by uploading these panos to google drive photos, and accessing the drive with mobile street view app

do you want to create a new virtual tour on google maps street view ?
(“embed” would mean to take an existing tour already on google maps street view and show it on another website)
you would create a new virtual tour by uploading your panoramas using the google street view mobile app, there is currently (september 2016) no way to upload panoramas to google maps using a desktop computer, you must use a mobile device running iOS or android to upload and create virtual tours on google maps street view
see these links for more info on creating street view virtual tours

September 11, 2016 at 3:59 pm #10251Hi, i read the whole thread but it seams that everybody is talking about something else so I decided to ask too.
How to create virtual tour like street view which is shown on google maps?
Do I need to be a truste / certified google photographer?I found this kind of interface. It looks like series of spherical panoramas that are connected.

Im trying to start a businnes based on this kind of virtual tours through google maps /google street view. I will appreciate any kind of advice because I spent whole day searching for some guide and tutorial about this kind of stuff and I found nothing useful.
September 16, 2016 at 12:34 am #10274you can connect your panoramas manually or automatically as explained here –
