Does anyone have good examples of images stitched with Mercator projection they can share? I’m writing a manual for Stitch, and it would help to have a pair of public gigapans, one stitched with standard spherical projection, and the other stitched with Mercator projection, for comparison. I’m familiar with the mathematical difference; I’m looking for a nice visual example. Rather than create these myself, I thought I’d reach out to all of the users. -Paul |

I tend to stitch most all of mine with Mercator because I often print them. Here’s one of many that I’m almost sure was stitched in that way: http://gigapan.com/gigapans/21542 or are you looking for one gigapan stitched both ways? |

Mosley: sorry; slow to respond … yes, I’d like to find a nice pair, one stitched normally (spherical / equirectangular projection) and one stitched with Mercator projection. thanks |

Hi Paul, if you haven’t found your examples yet, I can go back and try to stitch the same photos with the two projections you want, I’ll post back if I get something uploaded. |
