Abstract: Systems and methods for storefront recognition are provided. A surveyor or other user can access an application implemented on a computing device. A source image of a storefront of an entity can be captured by the surveyor using an image capture device(e.g.a digital camera). A feature matching process can be used to compare the source image against a plurality of candidate images of storefronts in the geographic area and return a list of the candidate images with the closest match. Each candidate image returned by the application can be annotated with a similarity score indicative of the similarity of the source image with the candidate image. The surveyor can use the similarity scores and the candidate images to determine whether the store has been previously investigated. The user can interact with the application to indicate whether the entity needs to be investigated.

Abstract: Systems and methods for the collection, verification, and maintenance of point of interest information are provided. One example system includes a plurality of mobile collection devices respectively operated by a plurality of human collectors. Each of the mobile collection devices uploads to one or more intermediate servers information describing one or more attributes of a plurality of points of interest. The system includes a mobile verification device that receives, from the one or more intermediate servers, information uploaded by a first mobile collection device and provides an indication of an accuracy associated with the information received from the first mobile collection device. The system includes the one or more intermediate servers. The system includes one or more production servers. The information uploaded by the first mobile collection device is transcribed from the one or more intermediate servers to the one or more production servers.
