Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for generating a three-dimensional model of a diagram based on a plane profile and coordinates of the diagram and an apparatus for implementing this method and is capable of generating a more realistic three-dimensional model than by the prior art. For implementing the method and the apparatus thereof, it is necessary to prepare in advance a parameter data base in which respective expected frequencies of appearance of a plurality of events which comprise undefined attributes, that is, those attributes, which are not included in the plane diagram information, of the attributes necessary for generation of a three-dimensional model.
