Built heritage documentation involves the 3D modelling of the geometry (typically using 3D
computer graphics, photogrammetry and laser scanning techniques) and information …

Three-dimensional (3-D) urban models are an integral part of numerous applications, such
as urban planning and performance simulation, map** and visualization, emergency …

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of urban reconstruction. While there exists a
considerable body of literature, this topic is still under active research. The work reviewed in …

Although the widespread use of gaming for leisure purposes has been well documented, the
use of games to support cultural heritage purposes, such as historical teaching and learning …

To address the increased energy demands and carbon emissions caused by global
urbanization, it is imperative to seek high-performance urban design solutions. Urban form …

3D modeling remains a notoriously difficult task for novices despite significant research effort
to provide intuitive and automated systems. We tackle this problem by combining the …

We introduce a novel approach that reconstructs 3D urban scenes in the form of levels of
detail (LODs). Starting from raw data sets such as surface meshes generated by multi-view …

3D modeling from images and LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) has been an active
research area in the photogrammetry, computer vision, and computer graphics communities …

Decision-making processes in traditional urban design approaches are mainly top-down.
Such processes have defects including not only taking a long time to examine design results …

We introduce an interactive tool which enables a user to quickly assemble an architectural
model directly over a 3D point cloud acquired from large-scale scanning of an urban scene …
