Mapillary, a platform for volunteered street view imagery, has emerged as a promising alternative to Google Street View, offering greater accessibility. Nonetheless, the utility of this open-source database can be limited by the current Mapillary Application Programming Interface (API), which only partially meets the needs of urban analytics research.
