•  Support Gigapixel map of Corsica, the island of beauty. -- Yann (talk) 22:06, 13 August 2023 (UTC)
•  Comment Incredible resolution! But without having looked at much of this document at full size yet, but before it decided to go black, I saw some chromatic aberration on the northern peninsula. It seems to me, any color on this map is automatically chromatic aberration. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:09, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

• Chromatic aberration is a failure of a lens to focus all colors to the same point (Wikipedia). This is a composite scan of a flat grayscale map. I don't see how there could be "chromatic aberration". Beside this document is 200 years old, so there may be defect due to paper aging, etc. The ZoomViewer is broken, but the elements can be seen in Category:Carte topographique de la Corse, 1824.

• How would the paper have turned pink and green in places? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 14:02, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

• I don't know why, but this come from the stitching the different elements. I made a grayscale version where this can't be seen: File:Carte topographique de la Corse, 1824 (15503010), grayscale.jpg. Is it better? Yann (talk) 14:32, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

• Can you suggest a way for me to view or download that photo? I keep getting either a black screen or server error messages, even when I try to view it at lower resolutions. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 16:13, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

• Sorry, I don't have a solution except downloading and opening it locally. Please urge the developers for fixing the ZoomViewer: phab:T343796. Thanks, Yann (talk) 19:52, 14 August 2023 (UTC)
• @Ikan Kekek: I made a smaller version as a temporary solution: File:Carte topographique de la Corse, 1824 (15503010), smaller.jpg (‎10,000 × 16,452 pixels, file size: 119.22 MB). Yann (talk) 21:11, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

• Thanks, that looks very good. But are you sure there is no CA or discoloration of the type I described at full size, now that I can't see it at full size? -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 00:12, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

 I withdraw my nomination The broken ZoomViewer makes this unpresentable. Yann (talk) 15:19, 16 August 2023 (UTC)
