The goal of the presented method is to register arbitrary mountain pictures and movies from the internet into a Google-Earth-like 3D Model. Such a technique could be used by travelers to transform their pictures into a virtual and realistic 3D experience. In particular, the system could also be used to automatically highlight elements in the image, such as the travel path taken, names of mountains, or other landmarks. The work could further be used to augment the realism and level of detail of applications such as Google Earth by transferring the information from photo and movies directly onto the 3D model. The core of the method is to find an accurate orientation of the camera that was used to capture the image. To this extent, the recording position is calculated from an annotated 3D model by finding, in an efficient and robust way, the best match between significant edges (eg, silhouettes) in both sources. While such an approach seems usually infeasible due to its computational complexity, a careful mathematical reformulation enabled the practicality of the solution. To validate the approach, many pictures were used from common photo (Flickr) and movie (Youtube) databases.

I had the pleasure of visiting El Teide. Spain´s highest mountain @(3718m) is one of the best places in the world to photograph the stars and is also the location of Teide Observatories, considered to be one of the world´s best observatories. The goal was to capture the beautiful Milky Way galaxy along with one of the most amazing mountains I know El Teide. I have to say this was one of the most exhausting trips I have done. There was a lot of hiking at high altitudes and probably less than 10 hours of sleep in total for the whole week. Having been here 10-11 times before I had a long list of must-see locations I wanted to capture for this movie, but I am still not 100% used to carrying around so much gear required for time-lapse movies. A large sandstorm hit the Sahara Desert on the 9th April and at approx 3am in the night the sandstorm hit me, making it nearly impossible to see the sky with my own eyes. Interestingly enough my camera was set for a 5 hour sequence of the milky way during this time and I was sure my whole scene was ruined. To my surprise, my camera had managed to capture the sandstorm which was backlit by Grand Canary Island making it look like golden clouds. The Milky Way was shining through the …
