He pointed out that if the individual transformed images of the sample photomosaic we were investigating (a map of the English cathedral city of Norwich) were loaded in a stack errors were visible.

Actually, in my post of 8 October, by stitching glitches I merely meant those that are visible in the final output.

Certainly there are mismatches in the remapped images where they overlap, as is, I think, not unusual. But in theory, for any given point, the stitcher should allow only one version of it through to the final product and I can'’t see that differences between that version and those from other images that are invisible in the final product are directly relevant. In the map we have been looking at the stitcher has been generally able to make a good choice and even where distortions are visible it is clear that they originate from the remains of folds.

Nonetheless, the discrepancies between the different remapped images are a reminder that the final photomosaic is not to be relied on as an accurate scaled-down reproduction of the original, much though one would like it to be.
