Triangle Grouping And Structure Recovery For 3d Building Modelling And Visualization, Joe Hegarty, James Carswell Dec 2005

Triangle Grouping And Structure Recovery For 3d Building Modelling And Visualization, Joe Hegarty, James Carswell

Conference papers

Location based and spatial technologies research for the web has endless application for mobile/position content delivery (m-commerce or pcommerce). By exploiting the inherent location-based intelligence of the underling spatial component, relevant examples can include geometrically accurate and photo realistic virtual representations for: property assessments; land/marine information systems; routing information; on-line shopping; cultural heritage/tourist information/sites; etc. A major challenge for this technology is its reliance on professional developers when creating the virtual worlds used for web-based navigation of these services. This paper describes SAMATS, a Semi-Automated Modeling And Texturing System, which has the capability of producing geometrically accurate and photorealistic VR …


Samats: Edge Highlighting And Intersection Rating Explained, Joe Hegarty, James Carswell Oct 2005

Samats: Edge Highlighting And Intersection Rating Explained, Joe Hegarty, James Carswell

Conference papers

The creation of detailed 3D buildings models, and to a greater extent the creation of entire city models, has become an area of considerable research over the last couple of decades. The accurate modeling of buildings has LBS (Location Based Services) applications in entertainment, planning, tourism and e-commerce to name just a few. Many modeling systems created to date require manual correspondences to be made across the image set in order to determine the models 3D structure. This paper describes SAMATS, a Semi-Automated Modeling And Texturing System, which has the capability of producing geometrically accurate and photorealistic building models without …
