The Potential of Panoramic Images for 3D Indoor Model Reconstruction

Vol.54 No.3 & 4 2019

ABSTRACT

The potential of the digital camera is used to improve the methods of data acquisition
and processing techniques. It automatically upgrades the manual methods to
sophisticated ways to maintain the efficiency and accuracy of the data. The 3D
indoor model can be developed using the photogrammetric technique, where the

images capture in geometric and geographic ways. The implementation of 3D model
is suitable for simple visualisation. 3D indoor modelling is a digital representation of
the interior space in the specific building. The aim of this research is to assess 3D
model indoor space using panorama images based on Close Range Photogrammetry

method. Several methods such as laser scanning are used to generate the 3D indoor
model in order to produce a good quality of 3D model. The validation between observe
and actual measurement has been evaluated. The results indicate the accuracy of
panoramic images able to produce 3D indoor modelling. This research assesses the

accuracy of data based on standard deviation and RMSE of the 3D indoor model. In
conclusion, the close-range method is useful for indoor space area due to the lighting
factors and the condition of the research area.

Keywords: Terrestrial, indoor, sequential, 3D, accuracy.
