A cross reality system enables any of multiple devices to efficiently and accurately access previously persisted maps, even maps of very large environments, and render virtual content specified in relation to those maps. The cross reality system may quickly process a batch of images acquired with a portable device to determine whether there is sufficient consistency across the batch in the computed localization. Processing on at least one image from the batch may determine a rough localization of the device to the map. This rough localization result may be used in a refined localization process for the image for which it was generated. The rough localization result may also be selectively propagated to a refined localization process for other images in the batch, enabling rough localization processing to be skipped for the other images.
