Abstract

3D models of urban sites with geometry and facadetextures are needed for many planning and visualizationapplications. Approximate 3D wireframe model can bederived from aerial images but detailed textures must beobtained from ground level images. Integrating such viewswith the 3D models is difficult as only small parts of buildingsmay be visible in a single view. We describe a methodthat uses two or three vanishing points, and three 3D to2D line correspondences to estimate the rotational andtranslational parameters of the ground level cameras. Thevalid set of multiple combinations of 3D to 2D line pairs ischosen by a hypotheses generation and evaluation Someexperimental results are presented.
