Automation in Multi-Image Spherical Photogrammetry for 3D Architectural Reconstructions

چکیده
The derivation of 3D metric information from spherical images for interactive exploration and realistic 3D modeling is receiving great attention due to their high-resolution content, large field-of-view, lowcost, easiness, rapidity and completeness. We present a methodology for accurate 3D reconstruction from spherical (panoramic) images acquired by mosaicking separated frame images captured with a rotating head and a consumer grade or SLR digital camera. In particular we focus the attention on the orientation of the panoramas which is achieved by extracting the necessary tie points with a new fully automated procedure, based on feature matching and robust estimators. Results of the automated panorama orientations and 3D reconstructions of architectural scenes are presented and discussed.

An Advanced Pre-Processing Pipeline to Improve Automated Photogrammetric Reconstructions of Architectural Scenes
Automated image-based 3D reconstruction methods are more and more flooding our 3D modeling applications. Fully automated solutions give the impression that from a sample of randomly acquired images we can derive quite impressive visual 3D models. Although the level of automation is reaching very high standards, image quality is a fundamental pre-requisite to produce successful and photo-realist...
متن کاملMulti-image Matching
In close-range architectural and archaeological photogrammetric applications, very often, amateur cameras are used. While images are suffering from excessive distortions, the objects themselves exhibit remarkable anaglyph (walls, excavation holes, 3D objects, etc.), prohibiting thus the use of simple planar rectification. The 3D reconstruction of such objects unavoidably requires the production...
متن کاملEvolution of Network Orientation Procedures
This paper discusses the evolution of algorithms and procedures for network orientation that have accompanied the transition of close-range photogrammetry from a film-based to a digital image-based measurement process suited to partial or full automation. A brief mathematical background to orientation models derived via perspective projection and projective geometry is first presented, and the ...
