A Methodology for Creating Large Scale Reference Models with Known Uncertainty for Evaluating Imaging Solution

摘要

We propose a methodology for acquiring reference models with known uncertainty of complex building-sized objects. Those can be used to quantitatively evaluate the performance of passive 3D reconstruction when working at large scale. The proposed methodology combines the use of a time-of-flight scanner, a laser tracker, spherical artifacts and contrast targets. To demonstrate the soundness of the proposed approach, we built a reference model composed of a 3D model of exterior walls and courtyards of a 130m x 55m x 20m Building. The expanded uncertainty of the 3D reference model and the spatial resolution were calculated.
