The paper introduces a novel hierarchical facade classification system called Level of Facade Generalization (LoFG), which is designed based on international urban modeling standards. The LoFG system ensures compatibility with real-world challenging classes and uniform methods’ comparison. To facilitate the development of 3D facade semantic segmentation methods, the authors present a large-scale dataset containing 601 million annotated points at five and 15 classes of LoFG2 and LoFG3, respectively. The paper also analyzes the performance of baseline semantic segmentation methods on the introduced LoFG classes and data, discussing unresolved challenges for facade segmentation.

The paper is about creating a better way to label buildings in pictures taken from different angles. It’s like trying to find specific types of houses or apartments in a big city. The current ways of doing this are not very good because they don’t account for the many different styles and shapes that buildings can have. To fix this, the authors created a new system called Level of Facade Generalization (LoFG) that divides buildings into categories based on how similar they are to each other. They also made a huge dataset with lots of examples of different building types so that computer programs can learn from it and get better at identifying buildings.
