Abstract
Constructing a three dimensional (3D) model of a structure may involve receiving a 3D surface representing a geographic area, the surface having elevation values associated with points of the surface and the geographic area comprises a structure having a geographic footprint smaller than the geographic area. Constructing a 3D model may also involve projecting the elevation values into a two dimensional (2D) plane. Further, a 3D model may be constructed of the structure by assigning model heights based on the elevation values projected into points of the 2D plane.
