University Exeter
In this project, more than 250 campus buildings of the University of Exeter were reconstructed.
Relevant 3D building features (based on aerial and ground photographs) were manually referenced photogrammetrically in the individual images. The determined 3D coordinates served as the basis for the polygon modelling and texturing of the buildings in 3dsMax.
This form of “manual” close-range photogrammetry offers decisive efficiency advantages over structure-from-motion (Sfm) / dense stereo-matching methods in very large urban environments.
