Mapy.cz is trying to create a 3D map for all of Czechia. Description here, sample map here. It was a bit slow to load on my computer; once it loads, navigation keys are at the bottom. Think of it like Google Earth, only with more detail and color.

Besides what's already been mentioned, there's a beta feature in Google Earth for Chrome
https://www.google.com/earth/  (you don't have to install anything if you already have Chrome)
1. Open GE in Chrome and click Menu>Settings
2. At the bottom you'll see "Enable KML file import (experimental)" Turn it on and click Save.
3. Click My Places>Import KML File  and find the TAR30 file you saved.

oooh, that makes it easy! Thank you!!

Mapillary has been an interesting alternative to Google Streetview. Now it's been swallowed by Facebook. I hope it will stay open for us non-FB folk.
