After kickoff event of Cambodia Street View Driving in Phnom Penh, the street view team should start collecting data in Phnom Penh Capital City of Cambodia, but during that time there were CNRP mass demonstrations about the disagreement of 2013 election results. To avoid the demonstration march in Phnom Penh, the street view team had moved to start collecting the imagery at Siem Reap from 22 August 2013.

Google launched an online interactive map of Cambodia’s Angkor Archaeological Park in Siem Reap, allowing users to explore the park’s more than 100 temples, including Angkor Wat. The launching event was focus only on Angkor Wat area, but we actually could see temples from other provinces like Kampong Thom (12 sites), Preah Vihear (22 sites) and Ratanak Kiri (2 sites).
