Photo: XRez
I was fascinated by the ultra-high resolution landscape images produced by XRez and described in a post on Digital Urban today. The photographs are produced from hundreds of stitched together, overlapping images, and the Google Maps interface is employed to navigate around the image.
Several of the pictures would be very useful in the classroom and could make a really interesting exercise based on observation and reasoning skills - for example you could take a screen shot of a detail of part of an image under high magnification, then challenge students to find it, starting from the zoomed out version.
