Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Recently, there has been considerable demand for 3D building models in several applications, including the design and construction of infrastructure in the urban environment, 3D/city modeling, and building information modeling (BIM). Additionally, the availability of high-resolution, multi-source geospatial data, such as vertical and oblique terrestrial imagery, LIDAR data, UAV data, etc., has facilitated the high-quality reconstruction of 3D object models. Furthermore, this has led to the development of automated algorithms for the robust extraction of buildings from high-resolution imagery and LIDAR data.  

In this Special Issue, we aim to compile research articles that address various aspects of building extraction from high-resolution geospatial data, 3D building reconstruction, as well as building extraction from imagery and LIDAR data. Review contributions and papers describing new data/concepts are also welcomed.

Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Buildings is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
