Methods and systems for automatic image stitching failure recovery

An image stitching recovery system comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• a processor communicatively coupled to the memory and configured to execute the instructions to:
• detect a failed attempt by an image stitching system to generate a first panoramic image in a target location image set, the target location image set including a plurality of panoramic images each depicting a target location from a different respective locus point at the target location,
• identify, in response to the detecting of the image stitching failure, a particular locus point at which a second panoramic image within the target location image set has been successfully generated,
• identify a first set of control points based upon which the first panoramic image is to be successfully generated, the identifying of the first set of control points based on a second set of control points that were used by the image stitching system to successfully generate the second panoramic image at the particular locus point, and
• direct the image stitching system to generate, based on the first set of control points, the first panoramic image in the target location image set.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed, direct a processor of an image stitching recovery system to:

• detect a failed attempt by an image stitching system to generate a first panoramic image in a target location image set, the target location image set including a plurality of panoramic images each depicting a target location from a different respective locus point at the target location;
• identify, in response to the detecting of the image stitching failure, a particular locus point at which a second panoramic image within the target location image set has been successfully generated;
• identify a first set of control points based upon which the first panoramic image is to be successfully generated, the identifying of the first set of control points based on a second set of control points that were used by the image stitching system to successfully generate the second panoramic image at the particular locus point;
• and
• direct the image stitching system to generate, based on the first set of control points, the first panoramic image in the target location image set.
