GeoGAT system enhances global video geo-localization with bidirectional sampling

Researchers have developed GeoGAT, a novel system for global video geo-localization that addresses limitations in existing methods. GeoGAT utilizes bidirectional temporal sampling to extract complementary spatiotemporal features from forward and reversed video sequences. These features are then processed through a geographical hierarchy graph using graph attention networks (GATs) with a dual-constraint mechanism to prevent prediction conflicts across different geographic levels (city, state, country, continent). The system was evaluated on two datasets, CityGuessr68k and the newly constructed GeoGAT10k, demonstrating state-of-the-art performance and eliminating hierarchical conflicts. AI

IMPACT This research could improve the accuracy and efficiency of video geo-localization systems, particularly for complex, edited videos.

    GeoGAT: Bidirectional Temporal Sampling Meets Hierarchical Graph Attention for Global Video Geo-localization

    arXiv:2609.39128v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Global video geo-localization aims to infer the geographic location of a video worldwide, evaluating performance across four geographic hierarchies: city, state/province, country, and continent. Existing methods typically employ one…
