One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for elevation tracking of devices are provided. Barometric pressure data points and elevation data points associated with a set of barometric measurement devices proximate a device are obtained. An interpolated field of barometric pressure is generated using the barometric pressure data points and the elevation data points. x, y location coordinates of the device are projected onto the interpolated field as a projected point within the interpolated field. Barometric leveling is executed upon a device barometric pressure value provided by the device and a barometric pressure data point at the projected point to determine a relative height difference between the device and the projected point. An elevation of the device is determined based upon the relative height difference.

Systems and methods for elevation tracking of devices

A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium each provide an object recognition service that identifies an object within an image or a video. An object is identified according to a general classification based on a domain-based inference model, and is subsequently further identified according to a sub-classification of the general classification based on another domain-based inference model. The domain-based inference models are hierarchical. The object recognition of the object may be used in support of end user services.

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for calibrating barometric sensors and/or determining altitudes of devices are provided. In an example, one or more barometric pressure measures are determined using a barometric sensor of a device. One or more locations of the device are determined based upon one or more global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals and one or more corrective signals associated with the one or more GNSS signals. One or more reference values are determined based upon the one or more locations. A barometric offset is determined based upon the one or more barometric pressure measures and the one or more reference values. A first barometric measurement is performed using the barometric sensor to determine a first barometric pressure measure. An adjusted barometric pressure measure and/or an altitude of the device are determined based upon the first barometric pressure measure and the barometric offset.
