The painting was digitised at the ETH Lausanne. At 1.6 terabytes, the resulting file is currently the largest digital image ever created.

There are several images of the entire panorama. The first comes from photographs from the early 20th century (archive in the Hällisch-Fränkisches Museum, Schwäbisch Hall, Germany). Several still analogue photos were taken on the occasion of Expo.02 in 2002 and document the state of the panorama after the restoration of 1997-2001.

Several extra-long analogue slides (35 x 540mm) were taken of the exhibited panorama. One of these slides was digitised in 2004 and made available to the public via the Foundation's website. This 80 MegaPixel image was replaced in 2024 with a much higher resolution 3.5 GigaPixel image (see zoom.murtenpanorama.ch/en).

The last digital image was created in 2023 during the digitisation project at the Laboratoire de Muséologie Expérimentale of the EPFL, Lausanne. This digital twin, scanned with ultra-high-resolution flatbed scanners with fixed light, made it possible to create the world's largest digital image of a unique object. The entire image measures 425,000 x 3,805,340 pixels or 1.62 terapixels. (see terapixelpanorama.ch)
