Abstract
Site modeling using image data fusion. Geometric shapes are generated to represent portions of one or more structures based on digital height data and a two-dimensional segmentation of portions of the one or more structures is generated based on three-dimensional line segments and digital height data. A labeled segmentation of the one or more structures is generated based on the geometric shapes and the two-dimensional segmentation. A three-dimensional model of the one or more structures is generated based on the labeled segmentation.

- and
- generating a three-dimensional model of said one or more structures based on said labeled segmentation.
A method for urban site modeling using image data fusion, comprising:
- accessing digital height data corresponding to individual points of one or more buildings that are a part an aerial image of a site;
- accessing three-dimensional line segments based on said one or more buildings;
- generating geometric shapes to represent portions of said one or more buildings based on said digital height data;
- generating a two-dimensional segmentation of said portions of said one or more buildings based on said three-dimensional line segments and said digital height data;
