Mapping Hacks

I’ve been taking lots of Gigapan images. One of the neat things about Gigapans is that they are using image tiling to let you pan and zoom around in image-space. They are using a modified version of the Flash Earth browser which Paul Neave wrote to access Google Maps tiles.

I wrote up a description of the process of embedding gigapans in other web pages. I included a bit on Quadtrees and doing tile math which might be of interest.

(I am also available to take gigapans for hire)
