Method, apparatus, and system for detecting an object and associated pose from overhead imagery data

An approach is provided for detecting objects and associated pose from imagery data. The approach, for instance, involves processing an image using a feature representation network to generate a set of points representing the object detected in the image. Each point, for instance, has an attribute indicating a geometric part of the object. The approach also involves using the feature representation network to construct a bounding box around the set of points. The approach further involves determining a pose of the object based on the bounding box and the attribute indicating the geometric part of the object for each point. The approach further involves providing the object, the pose, or a combination thereof as an output.
