Abstract
Methods for image based localization using an electronic computing device are presented, the methods including: capturing a local image with an image capture device; associating metadata with the local image; causing the electronic computing device to receive the local image; causing the electronic computing device to match the local image with a database image, where the database image is three-dimensional (3D); and calculating a pose of the image capture device based on a pose of the database image and metadata associated with the local image. In some embodiments, the metadata includes at least pitch and roll data corresponding with the image capture device at a time of image capture.
