Abstract

We present an approach for 3D urban scene reconstruction and interpretation based on the fusion of terrestrial and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery. The terrestrial close range images acquired with high-resolution cameras reveal details of buildings, particularly of the facades. Yet, they have a poor coverage of the roofs and the ground due to the obtuse viewing angle. Thus, they are complemented by UAV imagery taken from larger distances using nadir and oblique views, with a clear view ...
