CMRT09: Object Extraction for 3D City Models, Road Databases and Traffic Monitoring - Concepts, Algorithms, and Evaluation

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The work reported in this paper has been performed as part of
Cap Digital Business Cluster TerraNumerica project.
In addition, the authors wish to thank Grgoire Maillet for the im
portant feedback on the usability of the algorithm for produc
tive purposes, Mathieu Brédif for his sound scientific advice and
Mélanie Durupt for her help with handling the data.
Figure 6: Reconstruction results on the example of Figures 4(b)
and 5(b). From top to bottom: reconstruction without enhance
ment, with enhancement, with enhancement and a single manual
cut. This manual cut improves greatly the result but cannot be
detected based on our method as the altimetric discontinuity is
too low.
