Abstract

Systems and methods for determining two-dimensional (2D) images are presented. For instance, data indicative of a three-dimensional (3D) model of a geographic area can be obtained. A 2D output image can be generated depicting at least a portion of the geographic area based at least in part on the 3D model. Each pixel in the output image can then be reprojected to the 3D model. A plurality of aerial images depicting the geographic area can be obtained. A source image can then be determined for each pixel in the output image from the plurality of aerial images. The source image can be determined based at least in part on the reprojection of the pixel in the output image to the three-dimensional model.
