Abstract
A computer system maintains structure data indicating geometrical constraints for each structure category of a plurality of structure categories. The computer system generates a virtual 3D representation of a structure based on a set of images depicting the structure. For each image in the set of images, one or more landmarks are identified. Based on the landmarks, a candidate structure category is selected. The virtual 3D representation is generated based on the geometrical constraints of the candidate structure category and the landmarks identified in the set of images.
