Google Maps / Street View Preview

Location previews are a visual review aid built around structured location signals.

Core rules

  • exact address does not equal verified ownership
  • imagery must not upgrade verification status
  • Street View is checked via metadata before image fetch
  • fallback imagery should render when Street View is unavailable
  • no raw API key or key-bearing URL should appear in logs or artifacts

Current controls

  • ARGUS_ENABLE_MAP_THUMBNAILS
  • ARGUS_ENABLE_REPORT_GOOGLE_PREVIEWS
  • GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY
