Followed the steps on the readme.

Even with force, getting typed errors on TypedArray is not an UINT32Array.
Also, npm run crawl-gsv doesn't work, it resolved to an 404 error from Google.

Could these steps be updated or could you guide me in the right direction to get this project up and running?

Hi @anthonybouton, thanks for reporting.

Regarding npm install, the dependencies have not been updated for a while now, I'll try to migrate to newer versions next week.

As for crawl-gsv experiment, the code relies on the google street view browser endpoints from 2020. Since it was not an official stable API, I can imagine it has been changed over time. If you would like to play with street view panoramas, there are two options:

• use an old data snapshot here: https://github.com/nbasargin/WebSurfels-Demo/tree/master/gsv
• look into official and stable APIs from Google e.g. https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/streetview#StreetViewService

I will update the readme next week.
