Automatic extraction of building features from image data: how far are we?

This paper examines how far we are towards automatic extraction of building features, by comparing two pipelines from image data to building features: an ideal pipeline, based on the requirements of an on-going project, and a realistic pipeline, based on current computer vision technologies.
