+# Generating multi-resolution tiles for a panorama
+
+## Get a Panorama
+If you don't have your own, it's easy to use one of the examples in the repository.
+From this directory, run:
+
+```bash
+$ cp ../../examples/examplepano.jpg .
+```
+
+## Generate tiles
+
+To use the `generate.py` script, either its dependencies need to be installed,
+or [Docker](https://www.docker.com/) can be used to avoid this installation.
+
+### Option 1: with local dependencies
+
+The `generate.py` script depends on `nona` (from [Hugin](http://hugin.sourceforge.net/)),
+as well as Python with the [Pillow](https://pillow.readthedocs.org/) package. On Ubuntu,
+these dependencies can be installed by running:
+
+```bash
+$ sudo apt install python3 python3-pil hugin-tools
+```
+
+Once the dependencies are installed, a tileset can generated with:
+
+```bash
+$ python3 generate.py examplepano.jpg
+Processing input image information...
+Assuming --haov 360.0
+Assuming --vaov 180.0
+Generating cube faces...
+Generating tiles...
+Generating fallback tiles...
+```
+
+
+### Option 2: with Docker
+
+A small Dockerfile is provided that allows one to easily generate a panorama tileset
+with the [generate.py](generate.py) script, without needing to install dependencies
+on one's host.
+
+First, build the Docker container:
+
+```bash
+$ docker build -t generate-panorama .
+```
+
+When it's finished, you can bind the present working directory to a location in 
+the container (`/data`) so that your image is found in the container. Notice
+that the output needs to be specified in a directory that is bound to the host:
+
+```bash
+$ docker run -it -v $PWD:/data generate-panorama --output /data/output /data/examplepano.jpg
+Processing input image information...
+Assuming --haov 360.0
+Assuming --vaov 180.0
+Generating cube faces...
+Generating tiles...
+Generating fallback tiles...
+```
+
+## Viewing output (for either method)
+
+The final output will be in your present working directory:
+
+```bash
+$ ls output/
+1  2  3  config.json  fallback
+```
+
+Next, change back to the root and start a server:
+
+```bash
+$ cd ../..
+$ python3 -m http.server
+```
+
+A generated tileset and configuration in `utils/multires/output` can then be viewed by navigating a browser to:
+
+[http://localhost:8000/src/standalone/pannellum.htm?config=../../utils/multires/output/config.json](http://localhost:8000/src/standalone/pannellum.htm?config=../../utils/multires/output/config.json)
+
+When the page is loaded, the console will output a logging stream corresponding to the HTTP requests:
+
+```bash
+127.0.0.1 - - [09/Aug/2019 09:41:24] "GET /src/standalone/pannellum.htm?config=../../utils/multires/output/config.json HTTP/1.1" 200 -

+...
+```
+
+The panorama, in multi-resolution format, should display in the browser.
