I made this Gigapan image from the north press platform during President Obama's inaugural address at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, DC on January 20, 2009. It's made up of 220 images and the final image size is 59,783 X 24,658 pixels or 1,474 megapixels.
There are a few known stitching errors in this image. A NEW VERSION of the photo with most of the stitching errors corrected can be seen here:

This is a really great example of how NASA technology is being applied. The technology for gigapan came from the rovers currently on Mars. Read about it at: www.sti.nasa.gov/tto/Spinoff2008/c h_2.html

Wow... there is so much going on here, and so many people, at such a historic event. Probably one of the best Gigapans ever.

This is a great panorama. I really enjoyed exploring all of the facial expressions of people that I recognize. You can explore this gigapan for a long time. Thank you :)

A classic. Best use of a GigaPan to date. I also have emailed this link for others to see and enjoy. Thanks for the photo. Great inspiration. John Post

Destined to become a Top Ten GigaPan for a long time. It sure isn't easy to get a crowd this size (and this interesting) to sit this still for a GigaPan every day! Great timing too, David. Surely this isn't your first GigaPan - show us some more of your GigaPanning work!

Nicely done. I have emailed this link to more than 50 of my friends! Thanks for sharing this!!!

This is an extraordinary GigaPan and should become very visible to anyone looking at the most popular GigaPans. It really is nice!
