This article proposes a road-network-based geolocalization method that successfully localizes over whole city areas. It treats the road network matching problem as a point cloud registration problem and introduces global projective-invariant features for solving it. Experimental results demonstrate that the method can accurately and quickly localize aerial images over large areas.
In this article, a road-network-based geolocalization method is proposed. We match roads in the onboard images to the reference road vector map, and realize successful localization over areas as large as a whole city. The road network matching problem is treated as a point cloud registration problem under the homography transformation and solved under the hypothesize-and-test framework. To tackle the point cloud registration problem, a global projective-invariant feature is proposed, which consists of two road intersections augmented with their tangents. In addition, we propose the necessary conditions for the features to match. This can reduce the candidate matching features, thus accelerating the search to a great extent. These matching candidates are first filtered with the model consistency check in parameter space and then tested with similarity metrics to identify the correct transformation. The experiments show that our method can localize an aerial image over an area larger than 1000 km(2) within several seconds on a single CPU.
