摘要:In this paper we aim at generalizing, i.e., simplifying, 3D building data automatically employing vector-based morphology and discrete/continuous curvature space. So-called " scale-space events" , for which the link to the semantics of objects has been shown, play a major role for the simplification. The simplified data can be used to build up a level of detail (LOD) structure making the visualization of large data sets feasible by visualizing objects at a larger distance from the viewer based on a less detailed representation. Another point of view on our approach is that we base model-generalization from cartography which transforms data to the right level of abstraction for a particular analysis task on the formally well-defined theory of scale-spaces. Results for an implementation of the approach based on the computational geometry algorithm library (CGAL) public domain library show the validity of the approach
