The first panoramic pictures are taken in liberated Irpen. Already next week, they will be published on Google Maps. 

"Several teams are starting work at the same time. We want to cover as much as possible all the cities that suffered the greatest destruction, which definitely need to be recorded... The whole world should see how our cities looked before and what the aggressor did to them," said Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Ihor Bondarenko.

In addition to documenting crimes against civilians, the project aims to show evacuated residents in digital format (until it is safe to return to the liberated cities) the current state of their buildings.

Also, according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, a separate service will be created for law enforcement officers and rescuers, so that they can use it as an information and reference resource.
