Summary :

We present a novel point of interest (POI) construction approach based on street-level imagery (SLI) such as Google StreetView. Our method consists of: (1) the creation of a conflation map between an SLI trace and a vector map; (2) the detection of the corresponding buildings between the SLI scene and the conflation map; and (3) POI name extraction from a signboard in the SLI scene by user-interactive text recognition. Finally, a POI is generated through a combination of the POI name and attributes of the building object on a vector map. The proposed method showed recall of 92.99% and precision of 97.10% for real-world POIs.
