This disclosure relates generally to telecom inventory management, and more particularly to telecom inventory management via object recognition and localization using street-view images. In one embodiment, the method includes obtaining street-view images of a geographical area having telecom assets. The telecom assets are associated with corresponding GPS location coordinates. An object recognition model is applied to the street-view images to detect the telecom assets therein. Detecting the telecom assets includes associating the telecom assets with corresponding asset labels. A real-world location of the telecom assets is estimated in the geographical area by applying triangulation method on a set of multi-view images selected from the street-view images. The set of multi-view images are captured from a plurality of consecutive locations in vicinity of the telecom asset in the geographical area. The GPS location coordinates of the telecom assets are validated based at least on the estimated real-world location.
