Yes, I noticed that too. How is this done? There has to be some machine learning involved, accumulating all the aerial imagery and street view data and somehow generate a 3D model. This can't be all LIDAR data, can it?

I think it's just Stereophotogrammetry (regular pictures from different angles), I doubt LIDAR and ML is used. It's at least not required.

Have you not heard? Machine learning is used for everything today, and if it was not it definitely should been.
