3D City Reconstruction From Google Street View
نویسنده
چکیده
Despite laser scan 3D point cloud acquisition has greatly improved over the next few years, the process of creating 3D large scale city models is still quite expensive and not straightforward. At the same time, nowadays services such as Google Street View provide a vast amount of geo-registered panoramic imagery, guaranteeing a decent resolution for dense locations at zero cost. Our idea is indeed to leverage this free information provided by Google Street View in order to obtain a cheap and automatizable 3D recontruction of an urban area, by extracting the depth information related to the great number of panoramic images available online.

Building Streetview Datasets for Place Recognition and City Reconstruction
Google Maps API combined with Street View images can serve as a powerful tool for place recognition or city reconstruction tasks. In this paper, we present a way how to build geotagged datasets of perspective views from Google Maps. Given the initial GPS coordinates, the algorithm can build a list of panoramas in a certain area, download corresponding panoramas, and generate perspective views. ...

DAVID GALLUP: Efficient 3D Reconstruction of Large-Scale Urban Environments from Street-Level Video (Under the direction of Marc Pollefeys and Jan-Michael Frahm) Recovering the 3-dimensional (3D) structure of a scene from 2-dimensional (2D) images is a fundamental problem in computer vision. This technology has many applications in computer graphics, entertainment, robotics, transportation, man...
متن کامل3D Reconstruction from Multiple Images
There is an increasing need for geometric 3D models in the movie industry, the games industry, mapping (Street View) and others. Generating these models from a sequence of images is much cheaper than previous techniques (e.g. 3D scanners). These techniques have also been able to take advantage of the developments in digital cameras and the increasing resolution and quality of images they produc...

Extraction and analysis of building façades are key processes in the three-dimensional (3D) building reconstruction and realistic geometrical modeling of the urban environment, which includes many applications, such as smart city management, autonomous navigation through the urban environment, fly-through rendering, 3D street view, virtual tourism, urban mission planning, etc. This paper propos...
متن کاملAn Improved Car Detection using Street Layer Extraction
Automatic 3D modeling of urban environments has recently become a hot research topics since location aware applications (e.g. Virtual Earth, Google Earth) on the Internet aim for detailed models of the earth. In large scale 3D city models, moving objects, such as cars usually bear errors and distract the automatic reconstruction process. Therefore it is desirable to detect and remove these obje...
