Researchers have developed TACO, a new pipeline that tightly integrates Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) data with fine-grained Cross-View Geo-localisation (CVGL) for precise positioning without continuous GNSS signals. This system aims to provide accurate location fixes in environments where GNSS is unreliable, such as urban canyons or areas with signal jamming. TACO demonstrated a significant reduction in Absolute Trajectory Error on the KITTI dataset, improving it from 97.0m to 16.3m, while maintaining low computational costs. AI
