Abstract:
A method for aerial image processing preferably includes receiving ground control point (GCP) information, receiving a set of images, determining spatial information associated with the images, and determining GCP image locations; and can additionally or alternatively include determining aerial map information, training an automated GCP detector, and/or any other suitable elements. A system for aerial image processing preferably includes one or more computing devices, and can additionally or alternatively include one or more GCPs, aerial vehicles, and/or any other suitable elements.

Claim (Index 12):
A method for ground control point (GCP) mapping, comprising:\n receiving a GCP dataset associated with a mapping region, the GCP dataset comprising a geographic location associated with a GCP; receiving a set of images associated with the mapping region, each image of the set associated with a respective camera pose estimate, wherein each camera pose estimate comprises a camera position estimate and a camera orientation estimate; selecting a plurality of images of the set, wherein, for each image of the plurality, selecting the image comprises predicting that the image depicts the GCP based on the geographic location and the respective camera pose estimate associated with the image; for each image of the plurality, automatically determining a respective GCP image location within the image using a computer vision technique; refining the camera pose estimates based on the geographic location and the GCP image locations; and after refining the camera pose estimates, generating a representation of the mapping region based on the set of images and the camera pose estimates.
