Abstract
In one embodiment, a method includes receiving sensor data of a scene captured using one or more sensors, generating (1) a number of virtual surfaces representing a number of detected planar surfaces in the scene and (2) a point cloud representing detected features of objects in the scene based on the sensor data, assigning each point in the point cloud to one or more of the number of virtual surfaces, generating occupancy volumes for each of the number of virtual surfaces based on the points assigned to the virtual surface, generating a datastore including the number of virtual surfaces, the occupancy volumes of each of the number of virtual surfaces, and a spatial relationship between the number of virtual surfaces, receiving a query, and sending a response to the query, the response including an identified subset of the plurality of virtual surfaces in the datastore that satisfy the query.
