Abstract: With the advances in structure-from-motion and multi-view stereo, state-of-the-art oblique photogrammetric solutions can obtain city-scale photorealistic mesh models automatically. However, the mesh models are lack of fine geometric structure and semantic free. Aiming at solving this issue, it is proposed that a semantic enhancement method for photorealistic mesh models based on local surface parametrization. The basic idea behind the proposed method is that, through the representation of surface tree, it is converted that the seamless fusion of semantic components and photogrammetric mesh models to a replacing operation in a local area. The two 3D models are parametrized to 2D space in the local region and seamless merged and replaced in the UV space by 2D constrained delaunay triangulation (CDT). The replaced semantic components are then reversed transform to 3D space, which finalize the semantic enhancement automatically. Experiments on oblique images in Shenzhen reveal that the proposed method can effectively realize the automatic seamless fusion of semantic components with an open boundary and photorealistic mesh models. Compared with the commercial software Maya, based on the method of insertion and fusion, the proposed method has practical value for improving modeling efficiency.
