The visual landmark database includes geographic information for each landmark including the location and height of the landmark, the orientation that the landmark faces, the size of the landmark, the appearance of the landmark, the name of the landmark, a viewshed for the landmark indicating a set of locations from which the landmark is visible, etc. When a user requests map data or navigation directions to a destination, the interactive landmark localization system verifies the location and orientation of the user using the visual landmarks and their corresponding geographic information. For example, when the user is at a particular location and orientation, the interactive landmark localization system provides indications of landmarks within the vicinity of the particular location to verify the user's location and orientation.",
