Computer vision systems and methods for modeling three-dimensional structures using two-dimensional segments detected in digital aerial images

A system for modeling a three-dimensional structure utilizing two-dimensional segments comprising a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor extracts a plurality of two-dimensional segments corresponding to the three-dimensional structure from a plurality of images indicative of different views of the three-dimensional structure. The processor determines a plurality of three-dimensional candidate segments based on the extracted plurality of two-dimensional segments and adds the plurality of three-dimensional candidate segments to a three-dimensional segment cloud. The processor transforms the three-dimensional segment cloud into a wireframe indicative of the three-dimensional structure by performing a wireframe extraction process on the three-dimensional segment cloud.

11494977 · 2022-11-08 · ·

A system and method for automatically (without human intervention) identifying a material in an image that comprises a building material for buildings in the image. Building side polygons which may be used to identify building sides in off-nadir imagery are generated. Off-nadir, multispectral images, building footprint data and elevation data for a geographic area are taken as input. Building heights for buildings in the geographic area are determined by clipping the elevation data using the building footprint data and then calculating building heights. A candidate set of polygons representing visible side faces of each building in the images is created from the known building heights, and based on the viewpoint direction, using vector analysis. After culling occluded polygons and polygons too small for analysis, the polygons are associated with a building footprint. Building materials for each building having visible polygons can then be identified.

USE OF A CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORK TO AUTO-DETERMINE A FLOOR HEIGHT AND FLOOR HEIGHT ELEVATION OF A BUILDING

A system, apparatus, computer program product, and method use a convolutional neural network to auto-determine a first floor height (FFH) and a FFH elevation (FFE) of a building. The FFH, and FFE of the building are determined with respect to the terrain or surface of the parcel of land on which the building is located. In turn, by knowing the FFH and/or FFE of the building on the parcel, it is possible to use that information while performing a flood risk assessment to a property without requiring a personal inspection of the parcel by a human.
