## Abstract

Systems, computer-implemented methods, apparatus and/or computer program products are provided that facilitate improving the accuracy of global positioning system (GPS) coordinates of indoor photos. The disclosed subject matter further provides systems, computer-implemented methods, apparatus and/or computer program products that facilitate generating exterior photos of structures based on GPS coordinates of indoor photos.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A system, comprising:
a memory that stores computer executable components; and
a processor that executes the computer executable components stored in the memory, wherein the computer executable components comprise:
an identification component that identifies exterior image data comprising imagery of an exterior of a building, wherein the exterior image data is associated with location information corresponding to a capture location of the exterior image data relative to a global positioning coordinate system, and wherein the building is associated with interior scan location information corresponding to interior capture locations, relative to the global positioning coordinate system, of interior images captured inside the building; and
an exterior perspective component that determines a portion of the exterior image data comprising an optimal view of the exterior of the building based on a perspective of the exterior image data from the capture location that maximizes inclusion of the interior capture locations.
