Thistimely and authoritative volume explores the bidirectional relationship betweenimages and locations. The text presents a comprehensive review of the state ofthe art in large-scale visual geo-localization, and discusses the emergingtrends in this area. Valuable insights are supplied by a pre-eminent selectionof experts in the field, into a varied range of real-world applications ofgeo-localization. Topics and features: discusses the latest methods to exploitinternet-scale image databases for devising geographically rich features andgeo-localizing query images at different scales; investigates geo-localizationtechniques that are built upon high-level and semantic cues; describes methodsthat perform precise localization by geometrically aligning the query imageagainst a 3D model; reviews techniques that accomplish image understandingassisted by the geo-location, as well as several approaches for geo-localizationunder practical, real-world settings.
