Google Art Project is an online platform through which the
public can access high-resolution images of artworks housed in the
initiative’s partner museums. The project was launched on 1 February
2011 by Google, in cooperation with 17 international museums, including the Tate Gallery, London; the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City; and the Uffizi, Florence.

On April 3, 2012, Google announced a major expansion to the Art Project
as it signed partnership agreements with 151 museums from 40 countries.
The platform now features more than 32,000 artworks from 46 museums, and
the image acquisition process is underway at the remaining partner
museums
Development
The Art Project emerged as a result of Google’s “20-percent time”
policy, by which employees are encouraged to spend 20% of their time
working on an innovative project of interest.A small team of employees created the concept for the Art Project after
a discussion on how to use Google technology to make museums’ artwork
more accessible
The Art Project concept fits Google's mission "to organize the world’s
information and make it universally accessible and useful.
Accordingly, in mid-2009, Google executives agreed to support the
project, and they engaged online curators of numerous museums to commit
to the initiative.
Technology used
To move from concept to reality, the Google team leveraged existing technologies, including Google Street View and Picasa, and built new tools specifically for the Art Project.

|
The Google Street View Camera captures 360 degree images as it moves
through the location. Usually, the camera sits atop a car to capture
Street View images, but the Art Project camera was installed on an
indoor trolley. |
The team created an indoor-version of the Google Street View
360-degree camera system to capture gallery images by pushing the camera
'trolley' through a museum. It also used professional panoramic heads
CLAUSS RODEON VR Head HD and CLAUSS VR Head ST to take high resolution
photos of the artworks within a gallery. Only this technology allowed to
achieve the excellent attention to detail and this highest image
resolution. Each partner museum selected one artwork to be captured at
ultra-high resolution with approximately 1,000 times more detail than
the average digital camera.
