Abstract
An apparatus, method and computer program product are provided to train a feature detector to identify a respective feature from images captured by a camera. With respect to an apparatus, the apparatus causes at least one feature from one or more images that have been labelled to be projected onto a map. The apparatus is also caused to refine a representation of a path of a vehicle that carries a camera that captured the one or more images based upon registration of the at least one feature that has been projected with the map. Based upon the path of the vehicle following refinement, the apparatus projects one or more other features that have not been labelled from the map into the one or more images and then utilizes the images to train a feature detector.
