multiresolution panoramas with Sparse Images details

  • Is there a way to create a multiresolution panorama, preferably using cube format, than also define more areas that have even more details that can be zoomed in even further?

    I see it possible using SPHERE to define a partial panorama with hfov, vfov, and voffset. The partial panorama would need to be only one level of a multiresolution panorama. Preferably have several partial panoramas over top of the lower resolution. The partial panorama would need to be multiresolution too.
    Besides hfov, vfov, and voffset, would also need a hoffset to aline the partial panorama to the full panorama.

    The Deep Zoom specification talks about Sparse Images.

    It is implemented here

    But it lacks immerse panorama viewing. The panoramas are just shown as flat images.

    Ideally I would want to specify the panorama in Cube but have the partial panoramas available as rectilinear. No more using fov of 1 for rectilinear partial panoramas. Each level of the image can be a different type. there can be multiple level of the same resolution but they would cover different locations of the panorama.

    As a work around in my mockup, I am removing the tiles of the higher resolution image that is not part of the partial view. I can also remove from the xml file entire faces so tiles are not even attempted to be found on the server for those faces. I have not automated the creation of the correct tiles for the partial panorama.

    Will I need to switch to Sphere? Is it still faster for the host computer to display Cube than Sphere?

    Is this possible with hot spots? Can they be aligned well enough?
