OVR AR Metaverse goes to a whole other level. Italian company OVR is announcing today the creation of the so-called OVR Land Map.
OVR Land Mapping: the metaverse to another level
Thanks to the powers of AI, in fact, OVR is able to generate a 3D map of the physical world starting
 from simple pictures, no lidar or other expensive HW needed, just the 
smartphone in your pocket. All of the OVR users will be able to 
contribute to creating the biggest detailed 3D map of the real world.
This revolutionary technology of open mapping system will bring the OVR AR Metaverse to a whole other level:
 currently, when geolocalization an AR asset in an OVRLand there’s the 
limitation of the GPS accuracy that has meters of error outdoor while is
 totally unreliable indoor, a scanned OVRLand will have a localization 
precision up to ì0 cm.
A new AR experience
That opens up a whole new realm of opportunities in creating AR experiences that
 before were not technically feasible: localizing experiences on a 
specific wall or a statue outdoors, precisely superimposing AR
 to existing buildings, geolocating assets indoor and on multiple 
floors, to name a few… No other platform, nor in the blockchain, nor the
 traditional world, can currently achieve this.
But this is not only about AR 
precision and creating a wider bridge between the physical and the 
digital world; this is also about creating new economies on OVR. 
For example, Axie Infinity demonstrated
 what the potential of play-to-earn is. It enabled a crowd of players to
 earn a living in the Metaverse, also creating social inclusion between 
some of the poorer populations on the planet. 
OVR, with its technology, will unleash the potential of Map to Earn,
 so the company will enable a crowd of OVRLand Scanners to earn OVR 
tokens by simply scanning physical locations with the smartphone they 
have in their pockets. 
An amazing infrastructure
The company foresees this activity to be subsidized by OVR with a part of the revenues from OVRLand sales,
 by OVRLand owners that will decide to make their OVRLands even more 
valuable and usable by adding the 3D mapping and finally institutions 
that will harness the OVR platform to populate the Public Utility Layer 
of their territories. 
In the last year, treasure hunters physically went to over one million locations to collect the tokens, which would be already 300.000 mapped sq Km!
And that’s not all, another important question is what parts of the world should be mapped?
OVR has an answer to this question, OVRLand buyers generated a “Wisdom of the Crowds” based map, 6k+ investors voting with their wealth on the most important locations in the world.
Davide Cuttini, CEO of OVR, talks about the future of AR Metaverses:
“When I imagine a world where 
reality and virtuality are fused, where thanks to small contact lenses I
 can’t distinguish real and unreal projections, the crowdsourced 3D 
world scanning is the fundamental brick to create an amazing new 
infrastructure. Without the complete understanding of the real world 
through AI models available from commodity devices, no AR platforms will
 see a real adoption. I think that OVR is in the right direction to 
democratize access to this amazing new way to live our lives!”.
