Riassunto

Thistimely and authoritative volume explores the bidirectional relationship betweenimages and locations. The text presents a comprehensive review of the state ofthe art in large-scale visual geo-localization, and discusses the emergingtrends in this area. Valuable insights are supplied by a pre-eminent selectionof experts in the field, into a varied range of real-world applications ofgeo-localization. Topics and features: discusses the latest methods to exploitinternet-scale image databases for devising geographically rich features andgeo-localizing query images at different scales; investigates geo-localizationtechniques that are built upon high-level and semantic cues; describes methodsthat perform precise localization by geometrically aligning the query imageagainst a 3D model; reviews techniques that accomplish image understandingassisted by the geo-location, as well as several approaches for geo-localizationunder practical, real-world settings.

Dalla quarta di copertina

This timely and authoritative volume explores thebidirectional relationship between images and locations. The text presents acomprehensive review of the state of the art in large-scale visualgeo-localization, and discusses the emerging trends in this area. Valuableinsights are supplied by a pre-eminent selection of experts in the field, intoa varied range of real-world applications of geo-localization.

Topics and features:

• Discusses the latest methods to exploit internet-scale imagedatabases for devising geographically rich features and geo-localizing queryimages at different scales
  
• Investigates geo-localization techniques that are built uponhigh-level and semantic cues
  
• Describes methods that perform precise localization bygeometrically aligning the query image against a 3D model
  
• Reviews techniques that accomplish image understanding assistedby the geo-location, as well as several approaches for geo-localization underpractical, real-world settings
  
• Presents contributions from the leading and most activeresearchers in the field from both academia and industry
  

This invaluable text/reference is a must-read for allresearchers interested in developing automatic methods for imagegeo-localization, whether for commercial, academic, or military domains.Professionals involved in computer vision, computer graphics, photogrammetry,computational optimization, geographic information systems, and other relateddisciplines, will also benefit from the detailed coverage of this emergingfield.
