Abstract

A system and method is provided for identifying error and rescaling and constructing or reconstructing a multi-dimensional (e.g., 3D) building model using street-level imagery. Street-level imagery is used to identify architectural elements that have known architectural standard dimensions. Dimensional measurements of architectural elements in the multi-dimensional building model (poorly scaled) are compared with known architectural standard dimensions to rescale and construct/reconstruct an accurate multi-dimensional building model.
