This work achieves full registration of scenes in a large area and creates visual indexes for visualization in a digital city. We explore effective mapping, indexing, and display ...
We present an image-based Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) framework with online, appearanceonly loop closing. We adopt a layered approach with metric maps over small ...
Most vision-based UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) navigation algorithms extract manmade features such as buildings or roads, which are well structured in urban terrain, using the CC...
