This paper presents a new medium called route panorama (RP) for visualizing a large-scale environment such as a town or a city. An RP is captured by a slit camera mounted on a vehicle. It is a continuous, compact and complete visual representation of scenes along a route. It can be transmitted on the Internet in real time as a streaming media and displayed in various styles for virtual city traversing. The application of RPs includes virtual tour, navigation, heritage archiving, urban planning, city indexing, etc.
