Abstract: A facility, comprising systems and methods, for providing enhanced situational awareness to captured image data is disclosed. The disclosed techniques are used in conjunction with image data, such as a real-time or near real-time image stream captured by a camera attached to an unmanned system, previously captured image data, rendered image data, etc. The facility enhances situational awareness by projecting overlays onto captured video data or “wrapping” captured image data with previously-captured and/or “synthetic world” information, such as satellite images, computer-generated images, wire models, textured surfaces, and so on. The facility also provides enhanced zoom techniques that allow a user to quickly zoom in on an object or area of interest using a combined optical and digital zoom technique. Additionally, the facility provides a digital lead indicator designed to reduce operator-induced oscillations in commanding an image capturing device.
