Biggest Image on the Web

Mar 8th, 2006 | By | Category: General, Remote Sensing

IIPImage has what is touted to be the largest image ever posted on the web. The image is a 86400 x 43200 pixel, RGB, 10.7GB uncompressed TIFF, of….. you guessed it! Earth! It should come as no suprise to anyone working in the geospatial community that a large file viewer like this would be used first and foremost for geographic data. It’s pretty fun to zoom around and see the image detail. This could become a pretty useful tool for anyone wanting to display large remote sensing data.
