Abstract
Systems and methods for constructing a three-dimensional virtual reality model of a property are disclosed. An exemplary system includes a storage device configured to store point cloud data and texture information captured of the property and at least one processor. The processor constructs a structure polygon mesh based on the point cloud data and constructs a textured polygon mesh by mapping the texture information to the structure polygon mesh. The processor further identifies a hole in the textured polygon mesh based on the mapping and determine an area of the hole is below a predetermined threshold. The processor then identifies boundary polygons in the textured polygon mesh that are contiguous to the hole and estimates texture information of the hole, and repair the textured polygon mesh using the estimated texture information of the hole polygons.
