The precise identification of location in urban areas is a challenging problem for
Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), such as GPS, because of obstacles that
include signal blockage, multipath interference, and urban canyons, among other
factors. This thesis proposes a structure-based visual localization pipeline that uses
a combination of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) and traditional computer vision
algorithms to perform accurate localization by an image. Additionally, we provide a
collection of helpful tools for constructing a reference database for visual localization
that can be used with any city found on Google Maps. The proposed method was
evaluated on established visual localization benchmarks and produced competitive
outcomes. |
