Cool, nose hair will look like tree trunks.

That was NOT a mental image that I wanted

Nice find. The level of detail is of course amazing. However, the hardware to make take these images is nothing revolutionary. Stitching 9750 photos together to make 1 giant one is pretty cool and rather amazing.

If you're concerned about the "spying angle" there's really nothing new here. If you put your good camera on max zoom and take a bunch of pictures to stitch together, that's something that's been possible for ages if you want to put the work into it.

This is actually pretty easy to do with a decent camera and photoshop creative suite. Cool pics, though.

My favorite thing so far is in the tour.

The statue of Faith or statue of Giralda of Seville? What ever it is called. It's beautiful.

Did you see the disembodied legs?

If you look to the left of the big round building (on the right end of the panorama), there is a brown field. Beyond the brown field is an intersection with a traffic island w/ fountain. On the right side of the traffic island is a man walking and a blue car. Next to the blue car are some legs w/ no body.

Damn that made me dizzy.

You were probably too late.

You will have to be more specific than that.Put in some other building because behind the round building there is a whole hill that is brown.

Found the legs! that part of the picture is a little borked.. check the car next to that blue one. (the brown field is further from the round building than I thought)

Just FYI, at 24 bits per pixel for true color, this one image equals around 2.6 terabytes.
I suppose that's doable for surveillance purposes, for still photos. Video is another matter.
