Why choose this project topic?
Building-Outline Change Detection from Two Public Orthophoto Dates gives this Surveying and Geoinformatics final year project a manageable question grounded in dated public orthophotos and manually reviewed non-sensitive building outlines. You can document the selected conditions, follow a repeatable comparison and explain what the evidence supports without claiming more than the sample can show. Image changes do not establish construction date, ownership or planning permission.
How consistently can building outline change be evaluated from dated public orthophotos and manually reviewed non-sensitive building outlines under the stated criteria?
Agree the site or case, comparison criteria and feasible evidence schedule for building outline change with your supervisor.
Proposed project objectives
- 01Define the scope, criteria and evidence for building outline change in the selected study setting.
- 02Collect or assemble dated public orthophotos and manually reviewed non-sensitive building outlines using the stated permissions, schedule and recording rules.
- 03Compare the documented observations for building outline change and explain uncertainty and limits.
A suggested research approach
Use comparable public images and digitise a bounded non-sensitive area under a consistent rule. Manually review change candidates and document image resolution. Use only non-sensitive teaching data or lawfully accessible public spatial sources, document coordinate systems and source dates, and secure all flight, site and data permissions. Survey outputs are academic exercises and do not establish legal boundaries or control for construction. Confirm access, supervisor approval and any applicable institutional review before fieldwork.
What you will need
- Permissioned access to dated public orthophotos and manually reviewed non-sensitive building outlines
- A documented observation, measurement or coding protocol for building outline change
- Suitable plans, instruments or analysis tools with a record of source dates
Keep your project scope clear
Image changes do not establish construction date, ownership or planning permission.
