Abstract

This paper proposes a 3D map augmented photo gallery mobile application that allows user to virtually transit from 2D image space to the 3D map space, to expand the field of view to surrounding environments that are not visible in the original image, and to change viewing angles among different global registered images during the image browsing. The processing of images consists of two main steps: in the first step, the client application uploads an image to the GeoImage Engine which extracts the geo-metadata and returns them back to the client; in the second step, the client application requests augmented content from server, and then renders 3D view of images on the screen of mobile devices.
