Street View Car

Réunion’s Street View car has visible side mirrors, a roof rack, and black tape at the end of the rear right bar.

Architecture

Southwest Built-Up Areas

On Réunion, sugarcane plantations are found in the northeast and southwest. The southwest is generally more built up and densely populated, so more buildings or cars may be visible there.

Architecture

Volcanic Roadside Vegetation

Route du Volcan can feature a brown-red landscape with only scattered shrubs. White stones lining the road are another clue.

Vegetation

Eastern Vegetation Contrast

In eastern Réunion, the N2 passes through stretches with somewhat dense vegetation on both sides, while other parts open into vast landscapes with little to no trees.

Vegetation

Dense Forest Track

A winding dirt track here can be recognized by dense surrounding vegetation, particularly pine trees and eucalyptus. The track is dark in colour, with grass growing in the middle.

Vegetation

Tropical Island Vegetation

Réunion has lush green mountains close to the coast, with most roads running along the shoreline. Vegetation includes palms and ferns, with pine trees at higher elevation and flowering plants in the tropical savanna climate.

Vegetation

Cilaos Caldera Town

Cilaos is a town inside a caldera. It can be recognized by a wall of mountains surrounding the town and overcast coverage.

Map Bridge Mismatch

A bridge may appear on the map, but it will not be visible in the coverage because the imagery was captured before the bridge was built.

France Territory Rule

Réunion is an overseas department and region of France, located east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. For country streak purposes, it is counted as France.

Other

L-Shaped Bus Stops

Bus stops can be L-shaped and may be white or olive in color. They may also appear as a bus shelter, and are almost never accompanied by a yellow bus stop.

Other

Limited Road Coverage

Only a handful of roads have coverage without a trekker. Learning the general regions with coverage can help narrow guesses.

Other

Bus Stop Designs

Réunion has six distinct bus stop designs.
