SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GENERATING TEXTURED MAP OBJECT IMAGES

摘要

A method of producing a textured or pseudo-3D image of one or more map objects is provided comprising acquiring at least one image representing at least part of the one or more map objects. Laser scan data is acquired for the at least one map object, the laser scan data representing distances from a laser scanner to one or more points on at least one surface of the at least one map object. Texture or lighting data associated with the at least one map object is generated from the laser scan data, and the texture or lighting data and the image is processed in order to generate at least one textured or pseudo 3D image at least partially representing the one or more map objects.
