*Abstract

Non-exclusive rights available.

This technology allows for localization of a photographed subject from an image of its photograph taken anywhere in the world. Given an input image, the algorithm can give back an accurate estimate of where the image was taken and what direction it was facing when the photograph was taken. The technology functions by matching features in the image to a database of geo-registered structure-from-motion 3-D points and then estimating the 3-D camera pose with respect to these points. Its world-scale photo recognition can be used for organization and tracking changes.

 

Potential Applications:

• Photo browsing and organization
• Augmented reality and navigation
• Intelligence and forensics
