Description Peter Krantz 2014-07-28 09:20:24 UTC

Tools to capture 360 panoramas (photospheres) are becoming widespread among users with mobile devices. There seems to be multiple "flattened" photoshperes uploaded to wikimedia commons but no way of viewing them in articles[1]. Many articles about places could be enhanced with spherical panorama images.

It would be great if an open source viewer that didn't depend on a plugin was available in MediaWiki.
