Abstract
Improper positioning of architectural features is corrected during construction or reconstruction of a multi-dimensional (e.g., 3D) building model using known architectural dimensions and known relationships to planes (facades). The system identifies architectural elements that have known architectural standard positions relative to planes within the multi-dimensional model. Dimensional measurements of architectural elements in the multi-dimensional model are used to properly position one or more architectural elements relative to associated planes within the multi-dimensional building model. For example, a window position on a 3D building model first façade is moved inward (offset) according to the known relationship of a window (architectural element) being inset relative to a façade (e.g., exterior wall). In addition, a window frame could be repositioned outwardly relative to the same façade plane based on a known relationship of a frame being located on an external surface of the façade (e.g., exterior wall).
