Systems, devices, features, and methods for detecting common geographic features in images, such as, for example, to develop a navigation database are disclosed. For example, a method of detecting a common text pattern, such as for a road or path sign, from collected images includes collecting a plurality of images of geographic areas along a road or path. An image of the plurality of images is selected. Components that correspond to an object about the road or path in the selected image are determined. In one embodiment, the determined components are independent or invariant to scale of the object. The determined components are compared to reference components in a data library. If the determined components substantially match the reference components, the object in the selected image is identified to be a common pattern, such as for a standard road or path sign, corresponding to the reference components in the data library.
