Yesterday Microsoft announced GeoSynth. From the press release [scroll previous link to the bottom of the entry]: "GeoSynth, currently a standalone application, is comprised of a Viewer and Collection Builder which provides the same incredible capabilities as Photosynth. Users who require offline processing, storage and access of Synths will now be able to use GeoSynth behind their firewalls, on private or classified networks, and on portable platforms. Ongoing development will permit standard geo-tagged photos to be used as input and allow generation of geodetically referenced 3D Synths which can be quantitatively analyzed and combined with other geospatial products. Accurate geo-positioning, using rigorous photogrammetric methodologies, is a fundamental objective of GeoSynth." See also our previous PhotoSynth stories below. Read more of this story at Slashgeo.
