large scale projects as creating a virtual reality of entire cities
and connect each panoramas with geographic relevance. This was the
prime reason to explore the software as a research subject to bring to
light the potential of the software. It is to be noted that around
eighty papers were submitted for ?the ?prestigious ?conference ?and
