egenioussBench: A New Dataset for Geospatial Visual Localisation

We present egenioussBench, a visual localisation benchmark built on geospatial reference data: a city-scale airborne 3D mesh and a CityGML LoD2 model. This pairing reflects deployable mapping assets and supports true scalability beyond traditional SfM-based approaches. The query data comprise smartphone images with centimetre-accurate, map-independent ground truth obtained via PPK and GCP/CP-aided adjustment. From 2,709 images, we derive a non-co-visible subset by estimating the full co-visibility matrix from rendered depth and selecting a maximum independent set; the released data include a test split of 42 non-co-visible images with withheld ground truth and a validation split of 412 sequential images with poses, e.g. for training of pose regressors and self-validation. The benchmark features a public leaderboard evaluated with binning metrics at multiple pose-error thresholds alongside global statistics (median, RMSE, outlier ratio), ensuring fair, like-for-like comparison across mesh- and LoD2-based methods. Together, these design choices expose realistic cross-view and cross-domain challenges while providing a rigorous, scalable path for advancing large-scale visual localisation. We make the evaluation code and data availeable at https://github.com/fratopa/egenioussBench and https://www.egeniouss.eu/

Extrusion Segmentation Strategy to improve CAD Reconstruction from Point Cloud

Computer-Aided Design is ubiquitous in todays world, as almost every manufactured object begins as a digital model across industries. At the same time, advances in 3D sensing have made point clouds a dominant form of raw 3D data. Recovering the CAD model of a physical object from its point cloud scan has two major applications: reverse engineering, where physical or hand-crafted prototypes need to be reconstructed automatically as editable digital models, and quality control, where recovering the CAD description of a manufactured object helps quantify and understand deviations introduced during the production process. Thus, converting unordered point clouds into structured CAD models is increasingly important for modern applications. Deep learning has enabled major progress in computer vision for both 2D and 3D data, and new datasets facilitate data-driven CAD reconstruction. Building on this foundation, we develop an end-to-end model that reconstructs CAD models from point clouds and introduce a segmentation approach that decomposes them into individual extrusions. These partial shapes increase data diversity, improving the generalization and robustness of deep learning models. Our strategy thereby provides a simple, yet effective way to increase reconstruction performance of deep learning models.
