  • In an exciting turn of events, India has just began to receive Google Streetview coverage! This comes after a few years' long dry-spell in which no new countries were added. While the coverage leaves something to be desired, it's so exiting to have one of the most diverse countries in the world on Geoguessr finally!!

    Man I'm really surprised by your observation skills. Being a foreigner, you were able to associate really vague observations to a region. For example, observation of South Indian houses being more colorful than North Indian ones is really insane. You were also able to recognize different scripts. Good job!

    Just an info: The 'tuktuks' in India are called autorickshaws or simply autos! Also the multiple couloured 'tuktuks' that you saw in 1 round were actually e-rickshaws.
    In 19:44, the other language you saw was Bengali. The poster was for a Bengali festival called Durga Puja which I guess would cater by Bengali people living in Chennai.

    2)Mostly all the shop names have the entire location/address on their banners.
    3)There is no colour codes for tuk tuks. In my area(Jharkhand) we have them randomly coloured.

    Don't trust the street sign too much. A lot of places follow a 3 language policy, so traffic signs maybe in English, Hindi and the state's first language.
    But if you don't see any language other than hindi and English then it must definitely somewhere North- central India.

    couple notes- Urdu and Hindi are arguably the same language it's just that urdu/pakistan uses a different script than hindi/india (no end of arguments about this tho). The indian script is usually Devanagari (the script with a line on top), while urdu's is more of a arabic-influenced one. There's also probably a lot of ways to narrow it down with more regional languages- one obvious candidate is that Bengali script is only going to be found in the east. Religiously, Hinduism is the predominant religion in most of the country, but there's substantial amounts of Christians and Muslims in for instance the east IIRC. Also, it's worth noting that Devanagari being present is very possibly not an india lock, due to some places like Fiji using it as well (indians were brought to fiji as indentured servants and as such the language is a creole known as Fiji Hindi). Rajasthan is also very dry and deserty so that might be useful

      Muslims are everywhere, not just in the east. Many Muslims are in the South but there are millions of them in the North in Gujarat and Delhi and on cities along the Ganga as well. There's really no telling which city you're in based on the Muslim population because you could be anywhere. Christians are also found far more in the South and in cities as well.

But there are plain areas in the North too like the States of Punjab (where Jalandhar also was), Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Your game is also kinda tricking you, cuz they show you a backward area in a big city tricking you into thinking that its a small town or a village area or something.

    places in india differ based on building, just take a closer look at how gates of each houses look like, or how well the streets look like. As an indian, i can almost tell the places based on the architecture of the city/buildings. Also population density in india varies a lot, for eg: where im from (kerala), it would be so hard to find isolated area cauz the there is always someone but if you take our neighbouring state, Tamil nadu, they might have fields spanning km just for farming. In kerala we import most of our goods from other states. Like that, there is a lot to learn even when u look at an empty land.

    According to a law in India for normal use, private companies are allowed only a certain limit for resolution and its 1 meter spatial or 1 meter GSD (ground spatial distance). Which means that the image shown by a satellite will have its smallest pixel, sizes 1x1 meter in ground or surface of the earth. And this is the maximum permitted resolution they can do. Some places have even more restrictions. Hence the low quality of maps

    I believe that the colour of tuk-tuk(called Autorickshaw or simply auto) is mainly based on the fuel which they use rather than region... Yellow with Black/green/blue... Although there is a potential for using the same along with other details as a meta... 😅

    One hint for rural to semi rural areas... If you see a cylindrical water tank on top of houses. Check the colour. If it's yellow, you are in the south. If it's black or white you are in the north.

    Since India has a large amounts of arable land, you'll be seeing agricultural fields quite a bit. And, even in suburbs, not everything is fully developed and the soil isn't completely masked.
    It would really help if you knew what soil colour corresponds to what region in India.
    For example - 7:16, the red soil is very prominent in the state of Karnataka and the regions surrounding it.

    Auto/ Rickshaw colour code is actually based on fuel used.
    Black and yellow is petrol.
    Green and yellow is CNG.
    Cng has been used for a longtime in Delhi & Northern region.. and has started spreading in South fairly recent years.
    Yellow auto is from Tamil nadu, Telangana area.
    & The colourful narrow versions are electric!! Mostly seen in Uttar Pradesh.
    PS,Tuktuk is a bigger sized rickshaw.

    Really interested for someone more experienced (and patient lol) than me to properly document this, but it seems to me like the poles are quite various between the states which could be a really interesting clue. I’ve had multiple poles in Uttar Pradesh with a yellow sticker on them, and there seems to different styles of concrete (seen both octagonal and square) and wooden poles. Also I’ve noticed some almost blocky black and yellow guard strips on the bottom of poles in the Delhi region and also kind of like a blueish pole top in a couple of cities in gujarat. Could make for some interesting guessing

    Soil is a great way of locating yourself. Red soil is definitely the south. Moist brown or dry sand like would likely be the north. The Delhi-NCR region has housing sectors that have a grid like structure with parks in the middle (like at 6:49). Chandigarh area has this too. (I'm not sure if this is found in other places in the country but since I'm from the north this is one observation)
