This should be a Google maps feature, how cool would that be.
Doesn't Maps or Google Earth have a time-line for places now? Thought it started 4 or 5 years ago, so it's not everywhere yet.
Though I think that's just fairly recent images and such. Maybe it permits us submitting really old info/photos?
You could probably set this up on a shared map, getting people to help/contribute/not be a troll would be the challenge.
The desktop version of Earth has had it since the early 2010s if not earlier, I remember messing around with it while being taught how to use the measuring tools in a geography lesson, tbf that’s only for maps though not street view
