Systems and methods for generating three-dimensional models with correlated three-dimensional and two dimensional imagery data are provided. In particular, imagery data can be captured in two dimensions and three dimensions. Imagery data can be transformed into models. Two-dimensional data and three-dimensional data can be correlated within models. Two-dimensional data can be selected for display within a three-dimensional model. Modifications can be made to the three-dimensional model and can be displayed within a three-dimensional model or within two-dimensional data. Models can transition between two dimensional imagery data and three dimensional imagery data.

Selecting two-dimensional imagery data for display within a three-dimensional model

Systems and techniques for processing and/or transmitting three-dimensional (3D) data are presented. A partitioning component receives captured 3D data associated with a 3D model of an interior environment and partitions the captured 3D data into at least one data chunk associated with at least a first level of detail and a second level of detail. A data component stores 3D data including at least the first level of detail and the second level of detail for the at least one data chunk. An output component transmits a portion of data from the at least one data chunk that is associated with the first level of detail or the second level of detail to a remote client device based on information associated with the first level of detail and the second level of detail.

Processing and/or transmitting 3D data associated with a 3D model of an interior environment

Systems and methods for generating three-dimensional models having regions of various resolutions are provided. In particular, imagery data can be captured and utilized to generate three-dimensional models. Regions of texture can be mapped to regions of a three-dimensional model when rendered. Resolutions of texture can be selectively altered and regions of texture can be selectively segmented to reduce texture memory cost. Texture can be algorithmically generated based on alternative texturing techniques. Models can be rendered having regions at various resolutions.

Optimal texture memory allocation

Systems and techniques for processing three-dimensional (3D) data are presented. Captured three-dimensional (3D) data associated with a 3D model of an architectural environment is received and at least a portion of the captured 3D data associated with a flat surface is identified. Furthermore, missing data associated with the portion of the captured 3D data is identified and additional 3D data for the missing data is generated based on other data associated with the portion of the captured 3D data.

Semantic understanding of 3D data

Systems and techniques for determining and/or generating data for an architectural opening area associated with a three-dimensional (3D) model are presented. A portion of an image associated with a 3D model that corresponds to a window view or another architectural opening area is identified based at least in part on color data or depth data. Furthermore, a surface associated with the 3D model and visual data for the window view or the other architectural opening area is determined. The visual data for the window view or the other architectural opening area is applied to the surface associated with the 3D model.
