Abstract :
Nowadays several areas of application need a precise 3D cartographic model, specially in the urban domain: telecommunications, urbanism, tourism and other ludicrous applications. The analysis of aerial stereoscopic photos provides a fast method to obtain a faithful relief of the observed scene, including its superstructures. This work presents the Navegador3D developed by NPD/UFMG, ETIS/ENSEA and Vist@erea/INFOSTRATA.
