1. A method for generating a scaling factor for a building structure, the method comprising:
obtaining a plurality of images of the building structure, wherein the plurality of images comprises image features co-visible among at least two images;
deriving reference poses for an imager based on the image features;
obtaining world map data including real-world poses of the imager associated with the plurality of images, wherein the real-world poses are derived from an augmented reality framework and comprise geometric position information;
selecting at least two candidate poses from the real-world poses; and
calculating a scaling factor of corresponding reference poses based on the geometric position information of the at least two candidate poses.
