This article presents an approach for modeling landmarks based on large-scale, heavily contaminated image collections gathered from the Internet. Our system efficiently combines 2D appearance and 3D geometric constraints to extract scene summaries and construct 3D models. In the first stage of processing, images are clustered based on low-dimensional global appearance descriptors, and the clusters are refined using 3D geometric constraints. Each valid cluster is represented by a single iconic view, and the geometric relationships between iconic views are captured by an iconic scene graph. Using structure from motion techniques, the system then registers the iconic images to efficiently produce 3D models of the different aspects of the landmark. To improve coverage of the scene, these 3D models are subsequently extended using additional, non-iconic views. We also demonstrate the use of iconic images for recognition and browsing. Our experimental results demonstrate the ability to process datasets containing up to 46,000 images in less than 20 hours, using a single commodity PC equipped with a graphics card. This is a significant advance towards Internet-scale operation.
