Abstract

A computer database (14) is accessed from a remote computer (2), the database storing images (17) elevations of buildings (18) along streets in a real geographical area such as a village. A street within a village is chosen and a displayed image of part of the elevation of buildings along one side of the street is viewed on screen from a viewing position. Information relating to a displayed building can then be accessed. The displayed image may be scrolled so as to display images of buildings adjacent to the part of the elevation initially displayed. The orientation of the viewing position may be changed so as to display an image of an elevation of another building on the opposite side of the street.
