研究目的
To overcome the limitations of existing binary voxel models for building detection from airborne lidar data by proposing a greyscale voxel structure model that fuses intensity and elevation information, enabling better distinction between connected buildings and non-building objects.
研究成果
The proposed greyscale voxel structure model and 3D building detection algorithm effectively detect buildings in airborne lidar data with high accuracy (average quality over 92.5%), demonstrating robustness across different point densities and building types. However, future work should incorporate additional attributes from imagery to improve classification in more complex scenes.
研究不足
The GVS model only fuses elevation and intensity information, making it suitable only for distinguishing objects with different elevations or intensities. It may not handle complex scenes with similar intensities or occlusions effectively. The algorithm's performance depends on parameter settings, which may require empirical tuning. Outliers with heights similar to buildings or trees are not removed, potentially affecting accuracy.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study involves constructing a greyscale voxel structure (GVS) model from airborne lidar point clouds by voxelizing the data and assigning greyscale values based on mean intensity. A 3D building detection (3BD) algorithm is designed to detect building roofs and facades sequentially using elevation jumps and greyscale similarity.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Two lidar datasets are used: Vaihingen (Germany) Areas 2 and 3 with point densities of 3.9 and 3.7 points/m2, and Dublin (Ireland) 1 and 2 with a density of 50 points/m2. Ground-truth data are provided or manually extracted for evaluation.

3. List of Experimental Equipment and Materials: Airborne lidar systems (Leica ALS50 for Vaihingen, TopEye system S/N 443 for Dublin), software for data processing (e.g., Terrasolid for manual extraction), and computational tools for algorithm implementation.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Outlier removal using histogram examination, voxelization with voxel size determination based on point spacing, remapping points to voxels, assigning greyscale values, building seed selection based on elevation jumps, 3D connected region labeling with adjacency size variations, optimization using area, density, and greyscale thresholds, and facade detection using buffer zones.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
Accuracy evaluation using completeness (CP), correctness (CR), quality (Q), Type I and Type II errors. Statistical analysis of greyscale distributions using Gaussian mixture models and histogram methods.
