1. A mobile computing device, comprising:
- one or more processors;
one or more image sensors in communication with the one or more processors, the one or more image sensors configured to obtain multi-dimensional image data including at least one of two-dimensional image data and three-dimensional image data; and
one or more non-transitory machine accessible storage media in communication with the one or more processors, the one or more non-transitory machine accessible storage media comprising instructions to cause the mobile computing device to perform recognition of a plurality of visual features based on a map representation of a geo-spatial area of real world surroundings of the mobile computing device generated based on temporal and spatial alignment of the multi-dimensional image data, andwherein the recognition of the plurality of visual features includes recognition of larger-scale objects, recognition of smaller-scale objects by performing context-free object identification and contextual object identification, and recognition of a complex object comprising a plurality of the smaller-scale objects.

Abstract
A multi-sensor, multi-modal data collection, analysis, recognition, and visualization platform can be embodied in a navigation capable vehicle. The platform provides an automated tool that can integrate multi-modal sensor data including two-dimensional image data, three-dimensional image data, and motion, location, or orientation data, and create a visual representation of the integrated sensor data, in a live operational environment. An illustrative platform architecture incorporates modular domain-specific business analytics “plug ins” to provide real-time annotation of the visual representation with domain-specific markups.
