I think there are six cameras mounted on the roof of the vehicle along with associated uplink/gps/telemetry equipment. Next iteration will include laser rangefinders to sweep adjacent buildings for virtual reconstruction on the website.

Never under estimate human behavior. My buddy in Phoenix has his garage broken into a few years back and could figure out how. It was pretty simple: The thief jimmied his roommates car and pushed the garage door opener, making it for an easy entry to all the goods in his garage---tools, ect. How many of you have cars that sit in your driveway with garage door openers in them?

Bizarre uses of Google’s mapping products are nothing new, but the apparent use of Google Earth to steal expensive koi carp from residential ponds is pretty creative. The Telegraph reports that 12 thefts of the exotic fish and pond equipment have occurred over the past 3 weeks in the Hull, East Yorks region of the UK. Given the location of some of the targets, often set back from the road with high fences, police believe the crooks are using Google Earth to select their marked properties. Google is usually the target of such accusations, but the company does point out that its mapping service is just one of many available on the web and that responsibility for the crimes lies with perpetrator. True that.
