Popis: Objective: The use of single-source data for real-world 3D modelling currently faces problems such as deformation, pulling and fuzzy texture at the bottom of buildings in some feature models because of the lack of images. Moreover, LIDAR generates a huge amount of data, and the massive raw data processing and point cloud parsing puts high demands on the hardware arithmetic and algorithms. Aiming at the deficiencies and defects of the two data sources of inclined photogrammetry and airborne laser point cloud in the construction of high-quality and high-precision city-level 3D models. Methods: this study uses a university library building as an example and proposes the main technical process and method of modelling after fusing the point cloud data acquired by inclined photogrammetry and 3D laser scanning technology. This is accomplished in the reconstruction stage of multi-source data fusion through data spatial alignment, coordinate system unification and data spatial integration. At the stage of multi-source data fusion and reconstruction, through data spatial alignment, coordinate system unification, point cloud coarse alignment and the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm, a realistic 3D model of a building is constructed to verify the effectiveness of the modelling method. Results: The method can effectively improve the accuracy of the real-life 3D model, repair the deficiencies in the model and optimise the details of the model. It can also significantly improve the fineness of the tilt photography model and perfectly present the geometric and texture information of the building, making it a superior method for fine 3D reconstruction. Conclusion: This 3D reconstruction method of buildings, which integrates low-altitude inclined photogrammetry and airborne light detection and ranging (LiDAR), has high positional accuracy and can provide new methods and new ideas for the construction of digital campuses as well as for other engineering applications.
