  • Abstract
    A method for detecting urban structures in an irregularly spaced point-cloud of an urban landscape is proposed. The method is especially designed for detecting structures that are extensions to the bare-earth (e.g., bridges, ramps, etc.,). The method involves a segmentation of a point-cloud followed by a classification. Both the segmentation and classification of the data are based on the analysis of a data structure in which the point-cloud is represented as an orthogonal set of profiles. Also proposed is a conceptual and logical model of the landscape for the structure detection problem.
