    Abstract: The present invention pertains to geographical image applications. A user may transition between nadir and street level imagery using unstitched oblique imagery. Oblique images offer a rich set of views of a target location and provide a smooth transition to or from other images such as nadir photographs taken by satellites or street level photographs taken by ground level users. Using unstitched oblique images avoids artifacts that may be introduced when stitching together one or more images. This allows an application to display images to a user and create the illusion of three dimensional motion.

    Abstract translation: 本发明涉及地理图像应用。 用户可以使用未标注的倾斜图像在天底和街道级图像之间切换。 倾斜图像提供了丰富的目标位置视图,并提供平滑过渡到其他图像,例如卫星拍摄的天底照片或地面用户拍摄的街道照片。 使用未缝合的倾斜图像避免了在将一个或多个图像拼接在一起时可能引入的伪像。 这允许应用程序向用户显示图像并创建三维运动的幻觉。

    Abstract: A system and method of selecting and presenting geolocated views. Views may encompass various types of visual and audio information. In one aspect, a server receives a request for information associated with a geographic location. The server identifies a feature at the location. The server uses the identified feature to determine a category of views. The server also selects a view which is associated with the determined category of views and with the geographic location of the request.
