Classifying Buildings from Point Clouds and Images Page 18-21: The reconstruction of building outlines provides useful input for land information systems. In the city of Kalochori in northern Greece, a mixed commercial and residential area of 33 hectares was selected as a test area to evaluate the classification of buildings. Two data sources were available: airborne Lidar and aerial photographs.

Feature: Preserving Technological Monuments

Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is a proven technology for capturing complex objects.
