Abstract

A computer implemented method includes obtaining data for raw image frames captured by a moving camera. The raw image frames are indexed geographically, and a graph is created from the multiple raw image frames. The graph includes image frames as vertices and edges that represent image frames having overlapping image information. The method further includes skipping frames based on the amount of overlap, determining a frame having an interesting feature, using the graph to find additional raw image frames that have the interesting feature, combining multiple raw image frames to form a unique image frame, and transmitting the unique image frame.
