Those are some very cool 3D visualizations generated, but it's a bit difficult to understand what the form of the dataset they generated it from is. They say "in-the-wild" photography, but of course don't really give you a great sense.
The light->dark transitions having consistent geometry is clean though.
We use images from the Image Matching Challenge 2020 dataset. If you look at the Appendix, we list how many images we use and the process by which they were chosen.

This appears to be a substantial improvement on current open photogrammetry/structure from motion work [1]. I hope Google supports this making its way into cultural preservation efforts [2].
