Abstract
The objective of this study is to analyze the degree of correspondences among corners found in building facade imagery when the projective transformation parameters are applied to. Additionally, an appropriate corner detection operator is determined through experiments. Modeling of the shape of a building has been studied in numerous approaches using various type of data such as aerial imagery, aerial lidar scanner imagery, terrestrial imagery, and terrestrial lidar imagery. This study compared the Harris operator with FAST operator and found that the Harris operator is superior in extracting major corner points. After extracting corners using the Harris operator and assessing the degree of correspondence among corners in difference images, real corresponding corners were found to be located in the closest distance. The experiment of the projective transformation with varying corners shows that more corner control points with a good distribution enhances the accuracy of the correspondences.
