Abstract

A three dimensional model method based on combination of ground based images and images taken from above. An existing 3D model based on images taken from above is matched with images taken from ground level. All images including information about position and attitudes of the camera when the images from ground level and the images taken from above were taken and direction of each pixel. The method offers an automatically carried out imaging solving or at least mitigating occlusion problems.
