The following will help you appreciate another potential use case of Pointerra's technology:
Visual Positioning Service Proof-Of-Concept in Partnership with Verizon "HERE and Verizon’s Visual Positioning Service (VPS) proof-of-concept enables near-instantaneous identification of specific locations with sub-meter accuracy using an image or video. Proprietary 3D positioning algorithms from HERE analyze images or videos for accurate positioning, which occurs in near real-time via Verizon’s 5G Ultra Wideband network and 5G Edge. VPS compliments signal-based location technologies such as GPS, because it isn’t affected by tall buildings or other structures. The technology is also adaptable for indoor use at well: https://t.her.is/2GjHvCf"
Verizon and HERE partner for 5G-powered location services https://360.here.com/verizon-and-here-partner-for-5g-powered-location-services "The Visual Positioning Service would enable near-instantaneous identification of specific locations using image capture – without a GPS signal. Our 3D positioning algorithms will analyze images or video for landmarks and other data against our extensive location database. Happening through Verizon's 5G network and Multi-Access Edge Computing in near real time will allow sub-meter accurate positioning without the need of a remote server, and in urban canyons or signal deserts that GPS and other signal-based technologies can't reach."
