I was with the pilot for one of the larger projects on Saturday. It is a campus of a lot of buildings, and a lot of them have above ground walkways to keep the employees out of the weather to go between most of the buildings. It covers almost 5 square miles, and just the core mile is packed with complex building and the dang elevated walkways.
The issue for us, is the project was 420 individual images, all mosaiced together. The walkways are a challenge to make them look correct. When one image is shot from a different angle than the other image. The computer builds a 3D model of the ground, and the buildings, and tried to drape the pixels over the shape. Some of it is astonishing good, some is a little funky, and takes a human touch.
Personally I would prefer they tear down all the walkways, and just make those many hundreds if not thousands of employees just walk outside. It sure would make my job easier. It would really suck for then, but hey I would be happier! I suspect I will not get them to spend several million dollars to remove the walkways and make employees unhappy. Dang it.
