Troubleshoot Street View publishing issues

Here are a few common error messages you may encounter when you publish street-level collections and the steps you can take to resolve them.

Publishing failed

If a publish attempt fails with no specific reason, re-submit the file. Some other publishing errors include:

  • Image resolution too low: The image size doesn’t meet the minimum requirements. Re-capture the image with higher resolution selected from your camera menu.
  • File has already been published: Make sure to delete the previous upload before you attempt to re-upload.
  • Invalid GPS points: GPS metadata is wrong or incomplete. Make sure you have a clear GPS signal, then re-capture your image.
  • Unable to process location information: Re-capture the Street View.
  • File is corrupt: Re-upload the file. If it doesn’t get published again, then re-capture the Street View.
  • Internal error: Re-upload the file.
