How long before a Blue Line tour appears on Google Maps?
-
How long does it take Google to process a new blue line upload?
I'm testing this out, and want to be sure of the result before I do this for a client!
Thanks!

Has anyone any experience of how long it can take?
7+ days!? I thought I read somewhere that 4 days could be normal?
Any info would be helpful.
Thanks,
Martin

@Martin-Dunne if the tour is not fully published in 2 days, I would say there are issues with the Blue Line and Google can not process it. May I have the tour ID so I can check on it?

@albug Hi, thanks for getting back to me - I'm finding this software very confusing.
I don't see the Tour ID - what is that? Here are the names of two test blue lines I've tried to create from stills:
Featherbeds (cid: 16501083833951934845 ) #: 26
Saint Annes Cemetery (cid: 13736345422896764524 ) #: 25
I have since photographed some longer routes (one with stills and some video routes), and have been trying to piece together the process to get these up but no success yet... I have been looking at importing a long route (453 stills) - and looing for the "Auto Connect" option to link the images? Is this option hidden!?
All help much appreciated! Thanks!

@Martin-Dunne I've changed the speed a bit and published it again. If Google does not finish processing in 1-2 days, then something it's wrong, and we need to choose another sppeed.
For 13736345422896764524 you've pubished it with 7mph now I've deleted from Google and pubish it with 5mph
For 16501083833951934845 you've pubished it with 7mph now I've deleted from Google and pubish it with 15mphI would try next 15mp for 13736345422896764524 and 5mph for 16501083833951934845

@albug Hi Alin,
This change did not work - Still processing (I've been doing other work for the last couple of weeks - back at this now...)
I am in the process of trying to create a long blue line outdoor trail (452 panos) - I've seen a GoThru video with an auto-connect button - but this does not seem to exist - I've been doing it manually - very slow - am I missing something?
Also - some other walks I recorded using video (Ricoh Thetha Z1), and a GPS track separately (GPS Logger)... I'm trying to join these together. Do you know anything about this process... I'm getting a bit lost! Maybe that's a whole other can of worms...
Thanks for your help!
Martin Dunne
