London in 80 gigapixels


This incredible panorama of the city of London is the biggest 360-degree panorama made to date – and weighs in at a hard disk crushing 80 gigapixels. To put that in some sort of perspective, a single 18-megapixel image fills an A2 page.

This is an 80-gigapixel panoramic photo, made from 7886 individual images. This panorama was shot from the top of the Centre Point building in central London, in the summer of 2010. We hope that the varied sights and energy of London have been captured here in a way never done before, so that you can experience one of the world’s great cities – wherever you may be right now.
