Discover Faroe in a sheep's eye view

Have you heard of the Faroe Islands? If not, don't worry. Now you can have a look at the hidden Nordic archipelago just north of Scotland with a sheep's eye view! Unlike almost all parts of Europe, the Faroe Islands, an autonomous country within Denmark, don't have their own street views on Google Maps.

Durita Dahl Andreassen, who works for the local tourism bureau, got tired of waiting for Google to come to complete the mapping project, and instead established her own project called Sheep View 360.

She placed a 360-degree camera powered by a solar panel on the back of a sheep that would take photographs as the animal freely grazed the open hillsides of the Faroe Islands.
