Google's imagery comes from a variety of sources ranging from commercial satellite and aerial imagery companies (e.g. GeoEye or DigitalGlobe). Some of the imagery is given to Google by city or state governments.

Street View photographs on the other hand are taken by Google or its associates. These photographs are taken by special cameras fixed on top of cars or bikes. See related links to details of how Google turns photos into Street View.
