Abstract
A system and method are disclosed, in which two or more points of a target object from a two-dimensional (2D) image may be 'reverse projected' from a 2D plane to a 3D space. The method may comprise receiving a 2D image from a 2D camera, the 2D image including a representation of a physical topography and a target object of a plurality of target objects, the plurality of target objects being associated with a common physical characteristic, the common physical characteristic of the target object being detectable within the 2D image. The method may further comprise determining a position relative to the physical topography of the target object based upon a position of the target object in the image and the common physical characteristic of the target object.
