Multi-level building change detection based on the DSM and DOM generated from UAV images
The continuous advancement of urbanization in China leads to frequently changing urban buildings.Hence,grasping the change information of urban buildings duly and accurately holds critical significance for urban management,investigation of unauthorized construction,and disaster assessment.This study proposed a multi-level building change detection method combined with the digital surface model(DSM)and digital orthophoto map(DOM)generated from unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)images.The proposed method consists of four steps:① The dense point cloud and DOM generated from UAV images were pre-processed to generate differential normalized DSM(dnDSM)and extract vegetation zones;② Candidate change zones were extracted using multi-level height difference thresholds,with vegetation and smaller zones eliminated;③ The connected component analysis was conducted for lower-level candidate change zones.For connected objects,their higher-level change detection results were used to eliminate false detection results in the lower level;④ The quantitative relationship between positive and negative height difference values of change objects was statistically analyzed to determine the change types.As demonstrated by experimental results,the proposed method can retain the change information of low-rise buildings detected through the lower height difference thresholds while ensuring correct and complete change information of high-rise buildings.
