  • Publication number: 20230063099
    Abstract: Provided are a method and apparatus for correcting positioning information, an electronic device and a storage medium, which relate to the field of artificial intelligence, in particular, to intelligent transportation technology and image processing technology. The specific implementation solution includes steps described below. A to-be-corrected image and positioning information of the to-be-corrected image are acquired. A target candidate reference image matching the to-be-corrected image is selected from candidate reference images having accurate positioning information. The positioning information of the to-be-corrected image is corrected according to accurate positioning information of the target candidate reference image. According to the solution of the present disclosure, the positioning information of the to-be-corrected image can be quickly corrected, and a guarantee is provided for accurately updating a navigation map by using the to-be-corrected image subsequently.
