A method for determining a location at which an unobstructed view of a target location is obtained, includes capturing an image of an environment which includes a target location; accessing target location data, wherein the target location data comprises information associated with the environment and the target location; determining, based on the target location data and a spatial relationship between the target location and one or more objects in the image which obstruct a view of the target location, at least one suitable location of a user device from which an unobstructed view of the target location is within a field of view of the user device and satisfies one or more criteria; and providing a guided human-machine interaction process to assist a user associated with the user device in re-locating the user device to the at least one suitable location.

Augmented reality based geolocalization of images

Methods, systems, devices, and tangible non-transitory computer readable media for generating geolocalized images are provided. The disclosed technology can access target location data. The target location data can include information associated with an environment from which a target location is within a field of view of a user device. A suitable position of the user device from which an unobstructed view of the target location is within the field of view of the user device and that satisfies one or more criteria can be determined based on the target location data. Furthermore, indications and images of the environment within the field of view of the user device can be generated. The indications can be associated with positioning the user device in the suitable position.
