Abstract
In an aspect of the disclosure, a method, a computer-readable medium, and an apparatus are provided. The apparatus may include an imager, an inertial measurement unit, and a processing system. The imager may be configured to capture an image. The inertial measurement unit may have an output. The processing system may be configured to collect positional information indicating a position of the computing device in response to the output from the inertial measurement unit. Further, the processing system may be configured to determine a selected structure captured in the image. Further, the processing system may be configured to identify information corresponding to the selected structure based on the positional information.
Claims14
A computing device, comprising:
- an imager configured to capture an image;
- an inertial measurement unit having an output;
- and
- a processing system configured to:
- collect positional information indicating a position of the computing device in response to the output from the inertial measurement unit;
- determine a selected structure captured in the image;
- identify information corresponding to the selected structure based on the positional information;
- send, to a remote server, at least a portion of the positional information indicating the position of the computing device;
- receive regional information associated with a first parcel associated with a first structure from the remote server based on the at least the portion of the positional information, the regional information indicating at least one of first parcel information indicating a geographic position associated with the first parcel, first footprint information indicating a geographic position associated with the first structure, first building envelope information associated with the first structure, a first elevation associated with the position of the computing device, a first geographic map that includes the first parcel, a first image that includes at least a portion of the first structure, or first address information associated with the first structure;
- and
- verify whether the identified information comprises the first address information based on the regional information, wherein the verification of whether the identified information comprises the first address information comprises to:
- measure a first distance between the position of the computing device and a focal point within a field of view of the imager on a selected structural wall of the selected structure;
- determine a point position on a known structural wall that corresponds to the focal point, the known structural wall being indicated by at least one of the first footprint information or the first building envelope information;
- determine a second distance between the point position and the positional information indicating the position of the computing device;
- and
- determine whether the first distance corresponds to the second distance, wherein the identified information comprises the first address information when the first distance is determined to correspond to the second distance.
