Methods and apparatus for making environmental measurements are described. In some embodiments different devices are used to capture environmental information at different times, rates and/or resolutions. Environmental information, e.g., depth information, from multiples sources captured using a variety of devices is processed and combined. Some environmental information is captured during an event. Such information is combined, in some embodiments, with environmental information that was captured prior to the event. Environmental depth model is generated in some embodiments by combining, e.g., reconciling, depth information from at least two different sources including: i) depth information obtained from a static map, ii) depth information obtained from images captured by light field cameras, and iii) depth information obtained from images captured by stereoscopic camera pairs. The reconciliation process may involve a variety of information weighting operations taking into consideration the advantages of different depth information sources and the availability of such information. |
