| Abstract | The automatic creation of 3D models of urban spaces has become a very active field of research. This has been inspired by recent applications in the location-awareness on the Internet, as demonstrated in maps.live.com and similar websites. The level of automation in creating 3D city models has increased considerably, and has benefited from an increase in the redundancy of the source imagery, namely digital aerial photography. In this paper we argue that the next big step forward is to replace photographic texture by an interpretation of what the texture describes, and to achieve this fully automatically. One calls the result "semantic knowledge". For example we want to know that a certain part of the image is a car, a person, a building, a tree, a shrub, a window, a door, instead of just a collection of 3D points or triangles with a superimposed photographic texture. We investigate object recognition methods to make this next big step. We demonstrate an early result of using the on-line variant of a Boosting algorithm to indeed detect cars in aerial digital imagery to a satisfactory and useful level of completeness. And we show that we can use this semantic knowledge to produce improved orthophotos. We expect that also the 3D models will be improved by the knowledge of cars. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
