A system for determining a geolocation of a mobile object movable through a terrain in a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) signal attenuated environment is provided herein. The system may include: a sensor mountable on the mobile object and configured to obtain a dataset of a scene including three or more scene points; a digital storage unit configured to store a semantically segmented reference dataset representing the scene, the semantically segmented reference dataset having a reference coordinate system; and a processing unit configured to: determine three or more distances between the sensor and the three or more scene points; generate, based on the determined distance, an object semantically segmented projection dataset comprising a projection of the detected three or more scene points in the reference coordinate system; register the semantically segmented projection dataset with respect to the semantically segmented reference dataset; and identify the respective scene points real-world geographical locations.

Geolocation system and method

Navigation systems and methods are provided. A classifier is configured to transform a received image of a terrain into a classified image in which patches of pixels from the received image are represented as being in one of a specified number of material classes, each associated with respective terrain parameters. A physical traversability module is configured to determine, for the material parameters, a terrain topography and given vehicle parameters, a degree of traversability of the vehicle through the terrain as represented by the received image, to yield a traversability map. A routing module is configured to derive traversability measure(s) for route(s) through the classified image and with respect to the traversability map, between a given origin and a given destination or within a region with respect to a user-defined mission. A graphical user interface is configured to display the route(s) according to the traversability measure(s).
