Abstract
Systems and methods for determining locations of a device in an environment where features are present. Passive code pattern markers are used as unique location landmarks to provide on-demand location information to the user of the device in an abstract, landmark-based reference system that can then be mapped into an underlying physical 3-D coordinate system to give location coordinates that can be used by other tools to determine a viewpoint. For example, a 3-D visualization system can be configured to set a viewpoint so that an image concurrently generated by a computer system presents a scene which approximates the scene being viewed by the user in the physical world at that moment in time.
