Abstract:
A method and system for geo-localization in sensor-deprived or sensor-limited environments includes receiving an image file for geo-localization of a location depicted by the image file in a sensor-deprived environment; applying a plurality of geo-localization modules to the image file; generating, by each of the plurality of geo-localization modules, a module output, each module output including a module geolocation for the location and a module confidence score for the module geolocation; generating an ensemble geolocation output, the ensemble geolocation output including an ensemble geolocation for the location and an ensemble confidence score for the ensemble geolocation, the ensemble geolocation output being a weighted combination of the module outputs; and displaying the ensemble geolocation output to a display.
