Abstract: Oblique photography modeling often requires hundreds or even tens of thousands of images and usually requires block dense matching reconstruction. However, the commonly used block dense matching method can only model each block separately and the repeated images between blocks will participate in the matching calculation multiple times, resulting in redundancy and time-consuming calculations. Therefore, an improved block dense matching method is proposed. First, the image association algorithm is used to calculate the neighborhood image set for each image in the scene and the reconstruction state object of the image is initialized at the same time. Then, the entire scene is automatically clustered in space to complete the block and the sub-blocks needed for reconstruction are extracted. Finally, according to the image reconstruction state, object estimation, filtering depth map and depth map fusion generate dense point cloud. Experimental results show that this method can significantly improve the efficiency of oblique image 3D reconstruction.
