But I may be very wrong. Nope, it can also say basemap if you are on built-in map data with a valid zoom level.

Interesting question. Are we allowed to use street view images for mapping (filling in street names, amenities, house numbers) or do we need explicit permission like for aerial images?

But you shoudl be able to get these things from them: It is no problem at all to spot street names and even house numbers for example in Paris (and in Google Earth). And since they are facts and not *indexed* in a database so it should be ok. So, its couch-potato-mapping until Google blurrs street names and house numbers, too?
