8.6 gigapixel stiched image
From Rob Galbraith's news site:
http://www.haltadefinizione.com/
HAL9000, an Italian group that specializes in art restoration, preservation and high-resolution art photography, has posted a 8.6 gigapixel stitched image of an Italian fresco. The group claims it's the highest resolution digital photograph in the world.

I wonder what they're going to do with an image that size? I guess it's only for review on a computer, because AFAIK, there's no practical way of printing something that big.
At 300ppi, that print would be 31.55 feet by 21.03 feet.

I didn't see the Rob Galbraith link before I did the math.
