An effective automated building extraction method by integrating both the feature-based and area-based stereo matching is addressed in this paper. This new technique aims to improve the efficiency and reliability of the building extraction method introduced in vol.34, no.5 of this magazine writen by the authors, in which 3D regions based building extraction model was proposed. In this paper, three other building extraction models based on regions, 3D lines and the results of area-based stereo matching are put forward besides former 3D region based model.
