3D Modeling of Buildings

Conventional topographic databases, obtained by capture onaerial or spatial images provide a simplified 3D modeling of oururban environment, answering the needs of numerous applications(development, risk prevention, mobility management, etc.). However, when we have to represent and analyze more complex sites(monuments, civil engineering works, archeological sites, etc.), these models no longer suffice and other acquisition and processingmeans have to be implemented. This book focuses on the study ofadapted lifting means for „notable buildings“. Themethods tackled in this book cover lasergrammetry and the currenttechniques of dense correlation based on images using conventionalphotogrammetry.
