F13: Fast and Robust Construction of 3D Architectural Models from 2D Plans

Pandey,J., Sharma,O.

Abstract:
In this work we present a simple and robust method to create 3D building models from a set of architectural plans. Such plans are created for human readability and thus pose some problem in automatic creation of a 3D model. We suggest a semi-automated approach for plan cleaning and provide an algorithm for alignment and stacking of the plans followed by generation of 3D building model. We show results of our method on floor plans that generate complex 3D models in near real-time.
