Abstract:
1. A method comprising: analyzing one or more captured content items to generate information describing the captured content items; comparing the generated information to location information to identify at least one match, the location information comprising an observation position associated with a point of capture of one or more reference content items, the reference content items representing content items captured previously by a plurality of computing devices; determining an inferred position for the captured content items based on the location information associated with the identified match, the inferred position representing a position of a computing device that captured the content items; performing beacon-based position determination to determine a beacon-based position of the computing device; refining the determined beacon-based position of the computing device using the inferred position representing the position of the computing device; and displaying the refined position on a map in a user interface of the computing device.
