Evaluation of Visual Localization performance on the Aachen Day v1.1 dataset, measured using recall at positional and angular error thresholds: (0.25m, 2°), (0.5m, 5°), and (5m, 10°).

A research result applies to its stated dataset, split, metric and evaluation configuration. Compare like-for-like settings, preserve the metric's unit and direction, and distinguish paper-reported results from independent reproduction. The best result recorded here is not a claim of exhaustive, current global coverage.

| Scope | Recorded value |
| --- | --- |
| Task | Visual Localization |
| Dataset (including any stated split) | Aachen Day v1.1 |
| Metric | Recall @ (0.25m, 2°) |
| Unit | PERCENT |
| Direction | Higher is better |
| Results loaded | 8 of 8 |
| Coverage | All results currently returned for this benchmark |

Evaluation settings may differ between results. The original papers and recorded configurations are needed to establish comparability. A shared metric name alone does not establish an identical protocol.

## Metrics

- [Recall @ (0.25m, 2°)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/visual-localization-on-aachen-day-v1-1.md?metric=Recall%20%40%20(0.25m%2C%202%C2%B0)>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Recall @ (0.5m, 5°)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/visual-localization-on-aachen-day-v1-1.md?metric=Recall%20%40%20(0.5m%2C%205%C2%B0)>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.

- [Recall @ (5m, 10°)](<https://www.sota2.com/research/sota/visual-localization-on-aachen-day-v1-1.md?metric=Recall%20%40%20(5m%2C%2010%C2%B0)>): Higher is better; unit: PERCENT.
