Illah Nourbakhsh of Carnegie Mellon University talks at the first Fine  
International Conference on Gigapixel Imaging for Science, November  
11-13 2010 at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA.

Over the past three years the facility with which the public can  
capture, share and annotate gigapixel imagery at gigapan.org has  
catalyzed a fascinating set of local and global innovations in how  
communities of practice document, share and communicate with gigapixel  
panoramas. Illah will describe the evolution of the gigapan.org  
website and a number of its use cases in both science documentation,  
science communication and environmental and cross-cultural  
understanding. There will be time for an interactive discussion about  
our goals as a community and about future software release plans.
