GEOSPATIAL MODELING SYSTEM PROVIDING BUILDING ROOF TYPE IDENTIFICATION FEATURES AND RELATED METHODS

摘要

A geospatial modeling system (20) may include a geospatial model database (21) and a processor (22). The processor (22) may cooperate with the geospatial database (21) for identifying a building roof type defined by building roof data points (50) as being from among a plurality of possible building roof types. This may be done based upon applying multi-directional gradient calculations to the building roof data points.
