1. A method for automatically generating a three-dimensional model of a structure including real faç

  • ade textures obtained from geo-referenced oblique images, comprising the steps of;

    using a computer system to perform the steps of;

    analyzing wire-frame data of the three-dimensional model of the structure to locate geographical positions of at least one real faç

    ade texture of the structure;

    for each of plural geographical positions;

    locating multiple oblique images containing the real faç

    ade texture of the structure for the geographical position;

    selecting a base oblique image from the multiple oblique images by analyzing, with selection logic, image raster content of the real faç

    ade texture of the multiple oblique images, the selection logic using factorial analysis of the image raster content; and

    ,applying the real faç

    ade texture of the base oblique image to the three-dimensional model.
