I have previously written about how to transform a panoramic image into a polar or stereographic image using photoshop or gimp, but the other day I stumbled upon a nice little github project that utilises the panoramic images generated from google streetmap and the webgl transformation capabilities of the newer browsers (I used firefox).
The project allows you to navigate google street maps as normal but has the added benefit of showing the stereographic image too. Although not immediately useful and more of a technical demonstration, it’s quite a cool way to view your local area or some of the more interesting sites of the world.
Below are a couple of examples from around London.
