Vision-Based Kilometer-Scale Navigation with Geographic Hints (RSS 2022 Best Systems Paper Finalist)

We present Vision-Based Kilometer-Scale Navigation with Geographic Hints -- a method that combines the strengths of learning-based visual navigation with the ability to parse geographic "hints" in the form of satellite images or a schematic roadmap.
