New world record for panoramic image

This one is 70 gigapixels (590508 x 120750).
Very impressive.
They are using Silverligh to display on the Web.
Such a large image should be viewable by VLIV, it just need the file (actual format is unknown, looks to be PPM) to be converted to TIFF (actually a 64 bit TIFF).
Final image size is about 200 Gigabytes, not something you download or store easily !

Download VLIV latest version 2.5.2

Here is the direct DropBox link, and some sample images :

• a very large one (850 megabytes)
• a small one (8 megabytes)

These are tiff images that have pyramidal organization. You can also load normal Jpegs (preferably large ones), so that you can see virtual tiling in action.

Here is a medium one (15 megabytes)
