Pointcloud into primitive geometric forms for urban buildings

So there is no straight forward way to give building alike boundary representation for point cloud.

Unfortunately, using keywords I couldn’t find any information on the web.

The closest where I got to was using shrinkwrap - thus it gave too blobby, organic forms which are opposite of what I intend.

So, my question: is there any tool that might solve this?

How much do you want to spend?
Some semi-automated tools are becoming available for this, but they are not cheap.

Of course, you could do it manually, but I assume that is not the solution you are looking for.

Alternatively, there might be some simplified building models available already for the area you are interested in … have you checked?

Actually, I’ve managed to find source of simplified building models - so I got it solved…

About Heron - it is a great tool, but the data sources it connects to often lacks specific data, to be exact - only 25% of whole buildings were imported “successfully” with it’s exact height data. But it is no more an issue at this point.

Thank you!
