Device, method and program that create 3d models

Abstract

An object of the present disclosure is to enable a three-dimensional model to be created even for a target object which has unevenly spaced inter-point distances and only a part of a point cloud. According to the present disclosure, there are provided an apparatus and a method in which a three-dimensional model of a target object is created from point cloud data in which each point represents three-dimensional coordinates, the three-dimensional model is superimposed on an image in which a target object of the three-dimensional model is photographed, a point cloud data to be added to a point cloud data that constitutes the three-dimensional model is selected by comparing the three-dimensional model with the target object in the image, and the three-dimensional model of the target object is created again using the point cloud data including the point cloud to be added.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
