Introduction

Idea

This project aims to Enhance ARScale and CloudAnchor support(implemented in GSoC 2019) to MapMint4ME Android Application. This will allow the user to capture images with different objects marked on the image frame in real time. This will lead to storing more information about the location.MapMint4ME is an android application for MapMint web-service. MapMint is an internet-based Geographic Information System(GIS), designed to facilitate the deployment of Spatial Data Infrastructure(SDI). In an SDI, geographic data, metadata, tools, and the users are connected in an interactive manner in a framework so as to use the spatial information in an efficient and flexible way.

The MapMint is built on top of the ZOO-Project. The ZOO-Project is an SDI manager which gives the users the capability of building their own map and web-applications.

Project proposal

My proposal for GSoC 2020 can be found at: [1].

Advantages from this project

While capturing images, sometimes the user wants to add some extra information for more understanding. Current state allows the user to draw shapes and visualize changes in real time. But this AR scene will not be available once the app closes. So the idea is to store Anchors locally and the entire AR scene into some intermediate format which later can be used for visualization at some stage in future by the user hence helping to analyse the data at later stage. Also I am planning to calculate area of selected anchor space and display it to user in real time. Using this feature user will experience changes in real time. Also, planning to extend some UI features for representing GPS details so that we can integrate real world Lat-Long values to Virtual world AR anchors. This will improve process of information gathering.
