Amazing example of Photo Tourism
I found this link in a CNET article today and I definately feel it is necessary to post on.
Have a look at the link: http://phototour.cs.washington.edu/ - It is a virtual photo gallery application that allows you to view a tourism site in 3D using (what I imagine) is photos pulled in from flickr. You can look at the site from different angles, and select a section that you want to view closer. Very impressive little Java Applet!
It is also worth placing a link to the Microsoft Research, Interactive Visual Media for their paper on the technology directions!
