What do you mean by "street views"? Google Maps? What kind of drawing do you have? You can assign hyperlinks to any drawing object.

Yes can be done but need like CIV3d as want co-ordinates lat/long of a point, it is possible to open a google maps and zoom to a spot, I have a working example somewhere will try to find.

Google open internet page autocad

See code below. It takes a picked point in a drawing and converts it to latitude and longitude and launches google map in a Chrome browser and takes you to the picked point in google maps. It doesn't go to Street View but once you are in google maps you can easily get the street view.

This only works with Civil 3d or Map not plain AutoCAD. If you need something for plain AutoCAD maybe the drawing coordinates can be converted to latitude and longitude.

GreyHippo has given the full version here is a simple one a landmark for AUS.

(command "browser" "https://www.google.com.au/maps/@-33.8567844,151.213108,17z")

[GreyHippo]

The pervious version had Chrome specified, I revised it so it will now work with the default browser

...

Hey thnx for your code! Realy like it.
But it seems to miss the folowing:

(defun C:get_ll ()
...
)

Maybe some inprovements:

(setq desc (ade_projgetinfo "LL84" "description"))
        (setq x (rtos lon 2 6))
        (setq y (rtos lat 2 6))
        (princ (strcat
                 "Long:"(rtos lon 2 6)
                 "\nLat: " (rtos lat 2 6)
               )
        )
        (princ(setq webadress (strcat "https://www.google.nl/maps/@" x "," y ",120m/data=!5m1!1e1?authuser=0")))
        (princ)
        (command "_browser" webadress)
        (princ)

(setq req (getkword "No Coordinates Assigned to this MAP, Do you want to Assign them now? [Yes/No]: "))

I wrote code for this recently and just found this on Augi. See my blog for instructions: https://c3dk.com/2022/04/21/cad-google-street-view/

Here is the code:

; Written by Brian Strandberg, c3dk.com
; email: hello@c3dk.com
; Transforms coordinates from the X & Y in your drawing
; to Lattitude & Longitude
; then opens google street view at that point.
; code is not fully debugged
; requires a coordinate zone is assigned to your drawing.

(defun c:gsv (/)
(command "UCS" "World")
(if (not (getvar "CGOECS"))()(alert "fail - set coordinate zone first"))
(setq pkpt (getpoint "Select Point to see in Street View"))
(ade_projsetsrc (getvar "CGEOCS"))
(ade_projsetdest "LL84")
(setq cvp (list (car pkpt) (cadr pkpt)))
(setq result (ade_projptforward CVP))
(if (null result)
(alert "\nError in Transformation "))

(setq gsv (strcat "http://maps.google.com/maps?q=&layer=c&cbll=" (rtos (cadr result) 2 8) "," (rtos (car result) 2 8)))

(command "UCS" "P")
(command "browser" gsv)


); close defun

Look at what I posted but you need lat lang not XY.
