1. A method comprising:

  • processing, by an apparatus, one or more models of one or more objects associated with a geographical area to initiate a decomposition of the one or more models into one or more simplified surfaces based on a mesh segmentation;

    analyzing, by the apparatus, one or more error metrics as clusters are merged during the decomposition;

    stopping, by the apparatus, the decomposition at a threshold number of the clusters based on results of the one or more error metrics;

    selecting, by the apparatus, one or more non-occluded simplified surfaces with respect to various viewpoints among the one or more simplified surfaces as one or more content placement layers based, at least in part, on the threshold number of the clusters and a threshold of occlusions; and

    initiating, by the apparatus, a perspective-based rendering of an image of the one or more objects augmented with one or more content items associated with the one or more objects to display an augmented reality on at least one of the content placement layers.
