The camera captures so much data, that you can read street signs from the top of the building just by digitally zooming!

I've used that software you're talking about, and it's very basic.

I use PTGui, personally. I bought version 9 years ago, and haven't tried any of the new versions. v9 wasn't necessarily designed to make gigapixel panoramas, and newer versions might be better at it. I use v9 to make 360 panos from a small number of fisheye images, so it's a very different use case than gigapixel panos. Overall, though, the software is fantastic!

Looks like they have specific features for it now: https://ptgui.com/examples/creating_gigapixel_panoramas_with_a_robotic_panohead.html
