The largest digital panoramic photo in the world: 2,500 megapixels
TNO, an organization dedicated to technology research, has a posting of 2.5 Gigapixel image and produced the largest digital panoramic photo in the world. One with 2.5 billion pixels - that’s 500 times more pixels than a typical 5 megapixel camera.
Whoa man, you can zoom in forever. This is amazing. Read license plates, see in cars… Imagine a quicktime vr in this kind of image, that would be truly insane. Hehe, there is a guy standing and picking his nose in front of a couple of people sitting on the grass near the far middle back parking lot!
Have fun with a 2.2 Gigapixel picture 
“The largest digital panoramic photo in the world: 2,500 megapixels”
A couple things: it is amazing how much you can zoom; this is not a 360 panorama; there are a number of stitching glitches where a person is cut in half; and I don’t know who keeps track of which claim to be the largest panorama is valid.
