Automatic Detection and 3D Reconstruction of Buildings from Historical Maps

This paper presents an automatic 3D building reconstruction methodology for historical urban maps. It uses facade and openings detection on the maps, followed by rectification, regularization, and 3D model generation techniques. Evaluation metrics confirm the effectiveness of the approach, with high...

description This paper presents an automatic 3D building reconstruction methodology for historical urban maps. It uses facade and openings detection on the maps, followed by rectification, regularization, and 3D model generation techniques. Evaluation metrics confirm the effectiveness of the approach, with high accuracy in detecting facades and their openings while maintaining geometric integrity. The flexibility and interoperability of the chosen 3D building representation method allow for adjustments in dimensions without compromising layout, making it suitable for completing the urban environments where facades may not be directly visible. This methodology represents a significant step toward automating the reconstruction of 3D historical urban landscapes, contributing to heritage preservation and architectural understanding.
