I'm learning how to view my first panoramic photos in an interactive viewer. The Sphere Pano photo is very simple. The file seems to meet the standard 2:1 ratio for 360 horizontal and 180 vertical viewing and it even includes a good XMP tag.
On the other hand, when I load a 180 Pano photo into a sphere viewer, I have to guess the field of view dimensions. Even though the JPG file has an XMP tag embedded, it never specifies CroppedAreaImage or PosePitchDegrees. I searched here and Google for any kind of tech specs and couldn't find them.
Here is my best estimate from experimentation:
Horizontal View: 180°
Vertical View: 60°
Vertical Offset (at center): -5°
