Abstract: A method is provided for generating and revising map geometry based on a received image and probe data. A method may include: receiving probe data from a first period of time, where the probe data from a first period of time is from a plurality of probes within a predefined geographic region; generating a first image of the predefined geographic region based on the probe data from the first period of time; receiving probe data from a second period of time different from the first period of time, where the probe data from the second period of time is from a plurality of probes within the predefined geographic region; generating a second image based on the probe data from the second period of time; comparing the first image to the second image; and generating a revised route geometry based on changes detected between the first image and the second image.

Abstract: Point of origin information for image data may be inaccurately registered against a geographic location absolute. A process for aligning image and highly accurate model data adjusts a point of origin of the image data by matching elements in the image with corresponding elements of the model. In a street-level image, building skylines can be extracted and corresponding skylines from the building model can be placed over the image-based skyline. By adjusting the point of origin of the image, the respective skylines can be aligned. Building edge and facade depth information can similarly be matched by adjusting the image point of origin of the image. The adjusted point of origin of the image can be used to then automatically place images on the models for a long run of images.
