Abstract:
In this paper, we present a fast, automated approach to generating a highly detailed, textured 3D building facade model. This model is acquired at the ground level by driving a vehicle equipped with laser scanners and a digital camera under normal traffic conditions on public roads, and then processed offline. We evaluate our approach on a large data set acquired in downtown Berkeley.
