Abstract
Examples disclosed herein may involve a computing system that is operable to (i) identify a source map and a target map for transferring map data, where the source map and the target map have different respective coordinate frames and respective coverage areas that at least partially overlap, (ii) select a real-world element for which to transfer previously-created map data from the source map to the target map, (iii) select a source image associated with the source map in which the selected real-world element appears and has been labeled, (iv) select a target image associated with the target map in which the selected real-world element appears, (v) derive a geometric relationship between the source image and the target image, and (vi) use the derived geometric relationship between the source image and the target image to determine a position of the real-world element within the respective coordinate frame of the target map.
