Convolutional Cross-View Pose Estimation

We propose a novel end-to-end method for cross-view pose estimation. Given a ground-level query image and an aerial image that covers the query's local neighborhood, the 3 Degrees-of-Freedom camera pose of the query is estimated by matching its image descriptor to descriptors of local regions within the aerial image. The...

Cross-View Matching for Vehicle Localization by Learning Geographically Local Representations

Cross-view matching aims to learn a shared image representation between ground-level images and satellite or aerial images at the same locations. In robotic vehicles, matching a camera image to a database of geo-referenced aerial imagery can serve as a method for self-localization. However, existing work on cross-view matching only aims at...
