This paper describes an automatic method for the detection and detailed reconstruction of 3D building models that include roof superstructures such as dormer windows or chimneys from a very high resolution digital elevation model. Buildings are reconstructed as a set of roof planes with a set of parametric shapes that model roof superstructures. The proposed model-based approach minimizes a minimum description length energy.
