  • Patent number: 10326933
    Abstract: This technology relates to optimizing location and orientation information of an image using known locations of places captured within the image. For example, an image and associated pose data including the image's orientation and location may be received. One or more places captured within the image may be determined, with each place having a respective known location. The image may be annotated with the one or more places. A difference between each annotation and its respective known location to obtain updated pose data of the image may be minimized and the associated pose data may be updated to the updated pose data.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9529803
    Abstract: In one aspect, a request to alter a first image is received. The request includes a portion of the first image that is provided for display with a second image. The second image is associated with three-dimensional (3D) geometry data for an object depicted in both the first and second images and date information identifying when the second image was captured. Input identifying an area of the second image is received. A third image is identified based on the date information of the third image and the second image. The third image is associated with 3D geometry data for the object. An area of the third image is determined based on the 3D geometry data of the second image, the 3D geometry data of the second image, and the area of the second image. Information identifying the area of the third image is provided for display with the third image.
