London’s 80 gigapixel picture is world’s highest resolution image

You must have seen London in all its glory and magnificence, yet the unprecedented detail of London that’s captured in this 80 gigapixel image of the city is something beyond the normal sense. The world’s largest and highest resolution panoramic image this, is detailed enough to allow the onlookers to zoom right into clock face of Westminster to read the time almost 1.5 miles away, or to reveal the life inside buildings or see the people on the streets. Clicked by photographer Jeffrey Martin, this image that reveals the highest resolution image of any city ever, was taken over a span of three days from top of the Center point building and is a result of a unification of 7886 individual photos stitched together on a Fujitsu CELSIUS computer. If the photographer wished to print this image at normal photographic resolution, it would measure 115 feet long and 56 feet high. Jump down for a few more images.
