Abstract

An image positioning system provides an interactive visualization that includes a representation of a geographic area and several camera pose indicators, each of which indicates a location within the geographic area at which a corresponding image was obtained. An operator may select one a pose indicators and adjust the position of the pose indicator relative to the representation of the geographic area. In response, the image positioning system may automatically generate a corrected location at which the image corresponding to the selected pose indicator was obtained. The corrected location then may be stored in a database and used for various applications that utilize image positioning data.
