Abstract: Building is a major component of 3D model and its vectorization mainly relies on manual delineation. Some studies have investigated the building extraction using deep learning methods, however, such methods require large volume of labeled training samples. To solve these problems, this paper proposes a method for automatic building extraction by combining height and spectral information of oblique photogrammetry data in typical areas of Tianjin. The method employes height threshold segmentation, vegetation elimination, and morphological post-processing to gradually refine the building extraction results, which achieves the overall accuracy of 94%. The extracted building footprints are vectorized and regularized, and then the individual building can be queried in geographic information system which can promote the application of 3D real-scene model.

Key words: building extraction, oblique photogrammetry, 3D real-scene model, automation, vectorization
