More Information
Summary:To provide information about geographic locations, an interactive 3D display of geolocated imagery is provided via a user interface of a computing device. A view of the geolocated imagery is generated from a perspective of a notational camera having a particular camera pose, where the camera pose is associated with at least position and orientation. A selection of a location within the interactive display is received via the user interface, and a symbolic location corresponding to the selected location is automatically identified, where at least textual information is available for the symbolic location. Automatically and without further input via the user interface, (i) the notational camera is moved toward the selected location, and (ii) overlaid textual description of the symbolic location that includes a link to additional information related to the symbolic location is provided.
