Building descriptors are structured sets of attributes used to represent the physical, functional, and contextual characteristics of buildings. They serve as compact, machine- and human-readable summaries that support tasks such as search and retrieval, classification, simulation, energy modeling, mapping, and visualization.
Descriptors vary by purpose and scale. Geometric descriptors capture shape, footprint, height, and volumetric metrics. Semantic
Creation methods include manual annotation in building information modeling (BIM) systems, automated extraction from LiDAR point
Practical applications span urban planning, asset management, emergency response, autonomous navigation, historical preservation, and game and
