Project case study
Gigapixel Photography Platform
Built a deep-zoom platform for 140+ ultra-high-resolution photographs, with tile generation, keyboard navigation, downloads, and a desktop publishing tool for new images.
What it does
Once a photograph carries more detail than a normal web page can show, most gallery interfaces stop helping. This platform was built to keep that detail accessible instead of flattening everything into thumbnails.
It supports deep zoom, rotation, keyboard navigation, downloads, and the publishing workflow needed to keep a growing collection manageable.
Publishing pipeline
The viewer is backed by a Python and pyvips tile pipeline that generates Deep Zoom assets, thumbnails, and metadata. I also built a small Tkinter desktop tool to batch new images into the site without repeating the same setup steps by hand.
