arXiv: G3T Up! Gravity Aligned Coordinate Frames Simplify Pointmap Processing Modern feed-forward 3D reconstruction methods like VGGT predict pixel-aligned pointmaps in camera-centric coordinate frames. However, this choice of coordinate frame is not always optimal. We propose instead to predict pointmaps in upright, gravity-aligned frames that exploit strong structural cues present in many real-world scenes. Unlike camera-centric frames, gravity-aligned frames share a common vertical axis across viewpoints, reducing the rotational degrees of freedom needed to relate poin
