I found an error in the picture there is a man with a red backpack walking
and his bottom half is missing. There is a parking area in front of the long
building at the right of the picture and at the north end of that building
on the sidewalk there is a blue sign, looks like it has a bicycle on it and
the man is to the right of it.

A 2.5 gigapixel photo

TNO has produced the largest digital panoramic photo in the world.

So, what do we mean by large? After all, modern consumer cameras can easily
take a picture with 5 million pixels. Well, we are talking about a photo of
completely different dimensions. One with 2.5 billion pixels - that's 500
times more pixels. If this photo were printed, it would measure 6.67 m by
2.67 m (300 dpi). The photograph shows Delft and its surroundings in the
autumn of 2004. It was taken from the top of the Electrical Engineering
faculty of Delft University, at a height of about 100 m, by TNO.
