Calculation and update of a 3D building model of bavaria using lidar, image matching and catastre information

Abstract

The Bavarian State Office for Surveying and Geoinformation has launched a statewide 3D Building Model with standardized roof shapes without textures for all 8.1 million buildings in Bavaria. For acquisition of the 3D Building Model LiDAR-data are used as data basis as well as the building ground plans of the official cadastral map and a list of standardized roof shapes. The data management of the 3D Building Model is carried out by a central database with the usage of a nationwide standardized data model and the data exchange interface CityGML. On the one hand the update of the 3D Building Model for new buildings is done by terrestrial building measurements within the maintenance process of the cadastre. On the other hand the roofs of buildings which were built after the LiDAR flight and which were not measured terrestrially yet, are captured by means of picture-based digital surface-models derived from image-matching of oriented aerial photographs (DSM from image matching).
