Nowadays, digital 3D models are in widespread and ubiquitous use, and each specific
application dealing with 3D geometry has its own quality requirements that restrict the class …

The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) provides for the first time a near-global high-
resolution digital elevation model (DEM) with great advantages of homogeneous quality and …

An algorithm for the simultaneous filling-in of texture and structure in regions of missing
image information is presented in this paper. The basic idea is to first decompose the image …

The Digital Elevation Model that has been derived from the February 2000 Shuttle Radar
Topography Mission (SRTM) has been one of the most important publicly available new …

We present a novel approach for obtaining a complete and consistent 3D model
representation from incomplete surface scans, using a database of 3D shapes to provide …

Sampling complex, real-world geometry with range scanning devices almost always yields
imperfect surface samplings. These" holes" in the surface are commonly filled with a smooth …

Abstract 3D shape acquisition has become a major tool for creating digital 3D surface data
in a variety of application elds. Despite the steady increase in accuracy, most available …

We consider the problem of reconstruction from incomplete point‐clouds. To find a closed
mesh the reconstruction is guided by a set of primitive shapes which has been detected on …

In surface restoration usually a damaged region of a surface has to be replaced by a surface
patch which restores the region in a suitable way. In particular one aims for C1-continuity at …

Creating models of real scenes is a complex task for which the use of traditional modeling
techniques is inappropriate. For this task, laser rangefinders are frequently used to sample …
