To create this image, I used the following tools:
- PTGui Pro 12.21 for stitching the panorama
- Photoshop to content-aware fill the transparent gaps in the sky in the final panorama (I don't know how to get PTGui to properly stitch images without control points)
- ImageMagick to convert the
.psbfile from Photoshop into a PNG file (Photoshop can't export PNG files larger than 2GB; the one ImageMagick created was 3.91GB) - libvips to create the image pyramid from the full-resolution panorama
- OpenSeadragon to create the above image viewer
