    OpenStreetCam and Mapillary should be at the top, as they look like they're the only ones with STREET LEVEL IMAGERY like Google Street View. The others aren't primarily STREET LEVEL IMAGERY (if they have it at all) and thus aren't as comparable.

    So most of the imagery on Mapillary come from user contributions. Much fresher imagery and better coverage in some areas as well :D
