teaser
OrienterNet is a deep neural network that can accurately localize an image
using the same 2D semantic maps that humans use to orient themselves.

This repository hosts the source code for OrienterNet, a research project by Meta Reality Labs. OrienterNet leverages the power of deep learning to provide accurate positioning of images using free and globally-available maps from OpenStreetMap. As opposed to complex existing algorithms that rely on 3D point clouds, OrienterNet estimates a position and orientation by matching a neural Bird's-Eye-View with 2D maps.

Installation

OrienterNet requires Python >= 3.8 and PyTorch. To run the demo, clone this repo and install the minimal requirements:

git clone https://github.com/facebookresearch/OrienterNet
python -m pip install -r requirements/demo.txt

To run the evaluation and training, install the full requirements:

python -m pip install -r requirements/full.txt

Evaluation

Mapillary Geo-Localization dataset

[Click to expand]

To obtain the dataset:

  1. Create a developper account at mapillary.com and obtain a free access token.
  2. Run the following script to download the data from Mapillary and prepare it:
python -m maploc.data.mapillary.prepare --token $YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

By default the data is written to the directory ./datasets/MGL/. Then run the evaluation with the pre-trained model:

python -m maploc.evaluation.mapillary --experiment OrienterNet_MGL model.num_rotations=256

This downloads the pre-trained models if necessary. The results should be close to the following:

Recall xy_max_error: [14.37, 48.69, 61.7] at (1, 3, 5) m/°
Recall yaw_max_error: [20.95, 54.96, 70.17] at (1, 3, 5) m/°

This requires a GPU with 11GB of memory. If you run into OOM issues, consider reducing the number of rotations (the default is 256):

python -m maploc.evaluation.mapillary [...] model.num_rotations=128

To export visualizations for the first 100 examples:

python -m maploc.evaluation.mapillary [...] --output_dir ./viz_MGL/ --num 100

To run the evaluation in sequential mode:

python -m maploc.evaluation.mapillary --experiment OrienterNet_MGL --sequential model.num_rotations=256

The results should be close to the following:

Recall xy_seq_error: [29.73, 73.25, 91.17] at (1, 3, 5) m/°
Recall yaw_seq_error: [46.55, 88.3, 96.45] at (1, 3, 5) m/°

The sequential evaluation uses 10 frames by default. To increase this number, add:

python -m maploc.evaluation.mapillary [...] chunking.max_length=20

KITTI dataset

[Click to expand]
  1. Download and prepare the dataset to ./datasets/kitti/:
python -m maploc.data.kitti.prepare
  1. Run the evaluation with the model trained on MGL:
python -m maploc.evaluation.kitti --experiment OrienterNet_MGL model.num_rotations=256

You should expect the following results:

Recall directional_error: [[50.33, 85.18, 92.73], [24.38, 56.13, 67.98]] at (1, 3, 5) m/°
Recall yaw_max_error: [29.22, 68.2, 84.49] at (1, 3, 5) m/°

You can similarly export some visual examples:

python -m maploc.evaluation.kitti [...] --output_dir ./viz_KITTI/ --num 100

To run in sequential mode:

python -m maploc.evaluation.kitti --experiment OrienterNet_MGL --sequential model.num_rotations=256

with results:

Recall directional_seq_error: [[81.94, 97.35, 98.67], [52.57, 95.6, 97.35]] at (1, 3, 5) m/°
Recall yaw_seq_error: [82.7, 98.63, 99.06] at (1, 3, 5) m/°

We are currently unable to release the dataset used to evaluate OrienterNet in the CVPR 2023 paper.

Training

MGL dataset

We trained the model on the MGL dataset using 3x 3090 GPUs (24GB VRAM each) and a total batch size of 12 for 340k iterations (about 3-4 days) with the following command:

python -m maploc.train experiment.name=OrienterNet_MGL_reproduce

Feel free to use any other experiment name. Configurations are managed by Hydra and OmegaConf so any entry can be overridden from the command line. You may thus reduce the number of GPUs and the batch size via:

python -m maploc.train experiment.name=OrienterNet_MGL_reproduce \
  experiment.gpus=1 data.loading.train.batch_size=4

Be aware that this can reduce the overall performance. The checkpoints are written to ./experiments/experiment_name/. Then run the evaluation:

# the best checkpoint:
python -m maploc.evaluation.mapillary --experiment OrienterNet_MGL_reproduce
# a specific checkpoint:
python -m maploc.evaluation.mapillary \
    --experiment OrienterNet_MGL_reproduce/checkpoint-step=340000.ckpt

KITTI

To fine-tune a trained model on the KITTI dataset:

python -m maploc.train experiment.name=OrienterNet_MGL_kitti data=kitti \
    training.finetune_from_checkpoint='"experiments/OrienterNet_MGL_reproduce/checkpoint-step=340000.ckpt"'

Interactive development

We provide several visualization notebooks:

OpenStreetMap data

[Click to expand]

To make sure that the results are consistent over time, we used OSM data downloaded from Geofabrik in November 2021. By default, the dataset scripts maploc.data.[mapillary,kitti].prepare download pre-generated raster tiles. If you wish to use different OSM classes, you can pass --generate_tiles, which will download and use our prepared raw .osm XML files.

You may alternatively download more recent files from Geofabrik. Download either compressed XML files as .osm.bz2 or binary files .osm.pbf, which need to be converted to XML files .osm, for example using Osmium: osmium cat xx.osm.pbf -o xx.osm.
