TLDR
In this paper, a semi-automatic approach is presented for the 3D reconstruction of indoor of existing buildings from point clouds, where several segmentations are performed so that point clouds corresponding to grounds, ceilings and walls are extracted.Abstract:
The creation of as-built Building Information Models requires the acquisition of the as-is state of existing buildings. Laser scanners are widely used to achieve this goal since they permit to collect information about object geometry in form of point clouds and provide a large amount of accurate data in a very fast way and with a high level of details. Unfortunately, the scan-to-BIM (Building Information Model) process remains currently largely a manual process which is time consuming and error-prone. In this paper, a semi-automatic approach is presented for the 3D reconstruction of indoors of existing buildings from point clouds. Several segmentations are performed so that point clouds corresponding to grounds, ceilings and walls are extracted. Based on these point clouds, walls and slabs of buildings are reconstructed and described in the IFC format in order to be integrated into BIM software. The assessment of the approach is proposed thanks to two datasets. The evaluation items are the degree of automation, the transferability of the approach and the geometric quality of results of the 3D reconstruction. Additionally, quality indexes are introduced to inspect the results in order to be able to detect potential errors of reconstruction.read more

MLESAC: A New Robust Estimator with Application to Estimating Image Geometry
TL;DR: A new robust estimator MLESAC is presented which is a generalization of the RANSAC estimator which adopts the same sampling strategy as RANSac to generate putative solutions, but chooses the solution that maximizes the likelihood rather than just the number of inliers.

Building Information Modeling (BIM) for existing buildings — Literature review and future needs
TL;DR: Results show scarce BIM implementation in existing buildings yet, due to challenges of (1) high modeling/conversion effort from captured building data into semantic BIM objects, (2) updating of information in BIM and (3) handling of uncertain data, objects and relations in B IM occurring inexisting buildings.
