Determination of position from images and associated camera positions

A method comprising:

• receiving image data associated with a plurality of images of a scene including an object;
• receiving position data associated with positions of a camera that captured the plurality of images;
• identifying a camera position that corresponds to a first image of the plurality of images, the camera position corresponding to a time the camera captured the first image;
• identifying a relative position of the object relative to the camera, the relative position identified based on first image data corresponding to the first image, second image data corresponding to a second image of the plurality of images, and the camera position;
• and
• outputting an indication of a global position of the object based on the position data and the relative position of the object.

A system comprising:

• a camera configured to generate image data associated with a plurality of images of a scene including an object;
• a position receiver configured to generate position data associated with positions of the camera during image capture operations;
• and
• a processor configured to:
• identify a camera position corresponding to a first image of the plurality of images;
• identify a relative position of the object relative to the camera, the relative position identified based on first image data corresponding to the first image, second image data corresponding to a second image of the plurality of images, and the camera position;
• and
• output an indication of a global position of the object based on the position data and the relative position of the object.
