The iPhone actually uses TomTom maps, not Nokia. That said, no maps but Google maps has street view. Plus, they are moving into mapping shopping malls, parks, stores, and even tourist spots. On top of this, they use image recognition with their street view data to improve accuracy of their maps on several levels.
Don't forget the sheer amount of integrated information such as transit and traffic routes. Google maps has continually set the bar for mapping. They are so successful that people no longer even recognize that all these features were not commonplace prior to Google maps.
Edit: and if you define innovation to things in production, I straight up disagree. Innovation happens prior to production.
A similar feature to Streetview has existed in Bing Maps since 2009 [1]. Google was first, but others are chasing hard.

Bing Maps started adding malls and building maps in 2010. They also had birdeye view and 3D "photosynth" views predating Google's implementations [2] by 2 years.
