Figure 3-1: Work- and Dataflow CC-Modeler
The operator prepares the existing data so that it can be used in CC-Modeler TM which includes for
example image transformation, converting the existing orientation files and generating the internal
orientation file.
Step 2: Data capturing with Visual Star
The operator classifies the captured points as boundary points and interior points, based on their
different functionality in one object (Figure 3-2). Different codes are assigned to these points, which
help the CC-Modeler to generate the roof faces and an accurate topology. Each roof type can be
generated and there are no constraints regarding a roof type library. The interpretation of the data
depends on the operator which gives the opportunity to achieve different level of detail. The result
(point cloud) is stored as an ASCII file.
