Point-of-interest (POI) localization -- matching a user's close-up storefront photograph against large-scale geo-tagged street-view imagery -- underpins map construction, POI verification, and location-based services. Its closest existing paradigm, visual place recognition (VPR), assumes symmetric, whole-image matching of the same scene at a comparable scale; POI localization instead must match a close-up query, in which the target fills the frame, against wide references in which the same POI occupies only a small, off-center region among visually similar shops, under a substantial capture-do
