Abstract
A system and method is provided for scaling and constructing a multi-dimensional (e.g., 3D) building model using ground-level imagery. Ground-level imagery is used to identify architectural elements that have known architectural standard dimensional ratios. Dimensional ratios of architectural elements in the multi-dimensional building model (unscaled) are compared with known architectural standard dimensional ratios to scale and construct an accurate multi-dimensional building model.
