Amazingly, streetview is available for Longyearbyen in Google Maps. You can see from the silhouette that it was done by a guy on a bicycle with some sort of backpack mounted camera -- the results look just as good as regular Google streetview. I assume it was some sort of volunteer effort rather than a Google employee or contractor. EDIT: It looks like it's a German company that's doing it: https://www.mapyourtown.com/ https://www.mapyourtown.com/
