Thanks Matt, that is amazing. I wonder how big the image is at maximum magnification.

In a similar vein, Leigh pointed me at this site earlier in the week.

Matt I am amazed! Looks like something you might use at work. In a similar vein a mate of mine who works for NSW's finest was involved in setting up the cameras at Bondi Beach for NYE a couple of years back. The cameras were hired from Israel and he said the resolution you could get from 2 kms away of a person was unbelievable. They also could highlight the person with a laser pointer if required to locate troublemakers. He said they had a lot of fun calibrating the cameras in the days before :D

I got the license plate number

JR XG 84

is the license plate number of a volkswagon in the parking lot. I couldn't believe it kept so much detail. Simply amazing.

The image is made up of over 600 6MP images and took 2 .5 hours to shoot.

Actually it is quite freaky

Postby Grumpy on Thu Nov 18, 2004 11:47 pm

What an amazing photo. Too bad XZ DD 41 can't park straight.

Just kidding, he is not too bad. How on earth did they get all those photos so precisely stitched together. Wow.
