It does a great job of stitching "normal" photos together, (in jpeg or tiff), but I don't know how well it manages aerial photography. There are open-source equivalents [2] but they do not do a great job of finding the "control points" as easily as AutoPano Pro/Giga [1] http://www.kolor.com/ [2] http://panotools.sourceforge.net/ http://hugin.sourceforge.net/ http://autopano.kolor.com/ > Thanks, > Dan > > _______________________________________________ > Qgis-user mailing list > Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user >
