Evaluation of image-based modeling and laser scanning accuracy for emerging automated performance monitoring techniques

TL;DR: An overview of the newly developed automated image-based reconstruction approach and exclusive features which distinct it from other image- based or conventional photogrammetric techniques is presented and the terrestrial laser scanning approach carried out for reconstruction and comparison of as-built scenes is presented.

Automated Progress Monitoring Using Unordered Daily Construction Photographs and IFC-Based Building Information Models

TL;DR: In this article, a new automated approach for recognition of physical progress based on two emerging sources of information: (1) unordered daily construction photo collections, which are currently collected at almost no cost on all construction sites; and (2) building information models (BIMs), which are increasingly turning into binding components of architecture/engineering/construction contracts.

Automated construction progress measurement using a 4D building information model and 3D data

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed an accurate, essentially fully automated method for construction progress measurement using a 4D BIM in concert with 3D data obtained by remote-sensing technology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Data acquisition technologies for construction progress tracking

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine different technologies of automated and electronic construction data collection and compare them to identify various trends concerning their applicability in real-time data acquisition of construction projects and make recommendations for their suitability in different projects.

Automated Object Identification Using Optical Video Cameras on Construction Sites

TL;DR: In this paper, the background subtraction algorithm extracts motion pixels from an image sequence, the pixels are then grouped into regions to represent moving objects, and finally the regions are identified as a certain object using classifiers.
