    摘要: Provided is a method of spatially referencing a plurality of images captured from a plurality of different locations within an indoor space by determining the location from which the plurality of images was captured. The method may include obtaining a plurality of distance-referenced panoramas of an indoor space. The distance-referenced panoramas may each include a plurality of distance-referenced images each captured from one position in the indoor space and at a different azimuth from the other distance-referenced images, a plurality of distance measurements, and orientation indicators each indicative of the azimuth of the corresponding one of the distance-referenced images. The method may further include determining the location of each of the distance-referenced panoramas based on the plurality of distance measurements and the orientation indicators and associating in memory the determined locations with the plurality of distance-referenced images captured from the determined location.

    摘要: An image processing apparatus includes an acquisition unit configured to acquire position information indicating a position of a light source for irradiating an object with light, an acquisition unit configured to acquire position information indicating a position where a normal is acquired in the object, an acquisition unit configured to acquire position information indicating a position of an image capturing apparatus for imaging the object irradiated with the light by the light source, a calculation unit configured to, based on the position information, calculate a normal at the position where a normal is acquired, and a correction unit configured to, according to a predetermined condition, correct the position where a normal is acquired, wherein in a case where the correction unit corrects the position where a normal is acquired, the calculation unit calculates a normal at the corrected position where a normal is acquired.
