1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
directing a client device to:
acquire, via an imaging device included in the client device, an image of a real-world environment;
detect, via a feature detection algorithm, an image feature included in the image; and
identify a feature ray associated with the imaging device and the detected image feature;
transmitting the feature ray to a relocalization service that relocalizes the client device within the real-world environment based on at least the feature ray; and
receiving, from the relocalization service in response to the feature ray:
information associated with an anchor point comprising a mapped position within the real-world environment; and
a determined position within the real-world environment of the client device relative to the mapped position of the anchor point.
