We have just launched the webcams where you can view the latest photos of the Olympic Park. There are six different angles to view on the webcams page. You can see venues like the Olympic Stadium and Aquatics Centre where construction is currently underway, and as things progress we'll add more ParkCams to the page.
 
This is a big filming project for the Olympic Delivery Authority (ODA) and involves locating the right views from inside and outside the Park, and getting the webcams safely installed with power and communications. The webcam images also combine to create time-lapse video and you may have seen a clip of the Stadium columns in my August blog.

The view of the Stadium from alongside the webcam:

Below, the filming team give the lens window of the Stadium webcam a quick clean:

With new images updated regularly, I hope you'll check back regularly to see the progress for yourself. If you do, you'll also see when we launch our next webcam which is already planned and will show a closer view of the Aquatics Centre. 

What do you think of the webcams? What else would you like to see from the Park? Leave your comments on the blog.

The Parkcams are a great idea - I can't think of a better way to keep interested people throughout Britain in touch with what's happening around the Olympic Park.

I would like to view the park N, E, S & W. This way will have a better view of the transforming landscape.

It'll be better if you could control where the webcams are so you could see it in a 360 degree view...now that would be good
