Motivation• Recently, some geo-tagged photos have been
added into street view as additional illustration images for the same scenes.
• But the quality of annotated location is very poor. In this paper, we propose a system to annotate the location tags of users’ images in panoramic street view only with visual features.

Coordinate Transformation• A panoramic image is often projected to a
spherical surface in order to show users a photo-realistic interactive virtual experience.

Key Points Extraction• We use the conventional method of motion
detection to remove the moving regions of foreground.
• After the objects are removed, we extracted the key points in all panoramic images using SIFT features, which are invariant to image scale and rotation.
• The SIFT descriptors are quantized into visual key words in order to reduce the computational cost of matching.

Image Retrieval• We use hierarchical K-means to obtain visual
words from a training set of 20000 images. Locality-sensitive hashing is used to index these visual words.
• Given a query image, each bundling feature can be retrieved in the database after they have been extracted.
• We can get candidate subset after query images. Then we rank the candidate images by the frequency of its appearance.
