01 / Locate
Bound the search
Metadata-assisted and image-only paths gather candidate reference views without inventing a publishable location.
Visual localization / camera reconstruction
Return to the original sightline.
Sightline finds where a photograph was made, reconstructs the camera that made it, and tests that pose against the city before it can be presented as evidence.
149reviewed photographs
10bounded city scenes
6verified automatic poses
A fail-closed pipeline
A plausible match is not a fact.
02 / Solve
Recover the camera
Matched pixels are lifted into metric city geometry before robust absolute pose and field-of-view refinement.
03 / Verify
Render it again
Every candidate is returned to the 3D scene and measured. Rejected evidence remains visibly rejected.
