Over the past months I developed my own tools to work on little planets images.

The code is available is split into modules that answer questions I was asking to myself: how can I simply generate little planets from an equi-rectangular panoramic picture?

The operation can be listed as follows:

  1. create a pto configuration file with distance, angle and image output size
  2. apply the configuration file
  3. look at the resulting little planet
  4. restart operation 1 to 3 until satisfied with how look the little planet
  5. export little planet with latest angle and distance parameters values and a larger image output size for ideally printing it later.
