This deep learning model is used for extracting windows and doors in textured building data displayed in 3D views. Manually digitizing windows/doors from 3D building data can be a slow process. This model automates the extraction of these objects from a 3D view and can help in speeding up 3D editing and analysis workflows. Using this model, existing building data can be enhanced with additional information on location, size and orientation of windows and doors. The extracted windows and doors can be further used to perform 3D visibility analysis using existing 3D geoprocessing tools in ArcGIS.This model can be useful in many industries and workflows. National Government and state-level law enforcement could use this model in security analysis scenarios. Local governments could use windows and door locations to help with tax assessments with CAMA (computer aided mass appraisal) plus impact-studies for urban planning. Public safety users might be interested in regards to physical or visual access to restricted areas, or the ability to build evacuation plans. The commercial sector, with everyone from real-estate agents to advertisers to office/interior designers, would be able to benefit from knowing where windows and doors are located. Even utilities, especially mobile phone providers, could take advantage of knowing window sizes and positions. To be clear, this model doesn't solve these problems, but it does allow users to extract and collate some of the data they will need to do it.Using the modelThis model is generic and is expected to work well with a variety of building styles and shapes. To use this model, you need to install supported deep learning frameworks packages first. See Install deep learning frameworks for ArcGIS for more information. The model can be used with the Interactive Object Detection tool.A blog on the ArcGIS Pro tool that leverages this model is published on Esri Blogs. We've also published steps on how to retrain this model further using your data.InputThe model is expected to work with any textured building data displayed in 3D views. Example data sources include textured multipatches, 3D object scene layers, and integrated mesh layers. OutputFeature class with polygons representing the detected windows and doors in the input imagery. Model architectureThe model uses the FasterRCNN model architecture implemented using ArcGIS API for Python.Training dataThis model was trained using images from the Open Images Dataset.Sample resultsBelow, are sample results of the windows detected with this model in ArcGIS Pro using the Interactive Object Detection tool, which outputs the detected objects as a symbolized point feature class with size and orientation attributes.

The National Hydrography Dataset Plus High Resolution (NHDplus High Resolution) maps the lakes, ponds, streams, rivers and other surface waters of the United States. Created by the US Geological Survey, NHDPlus High Resolution provides mean annual flow and velocity estimates for rivers and streams. Additional attributes provide connections between features facilitating complicated analyses.For more information on the NHDPlus High Resolution dataset see the User’s Guide for the National Hydrography Dataset Plus (NHDPlus) High Resolution.Dataset SummaryPhenomenon Mapped: Surface waters and related features of the United States and associated territoriesGeographic Extent: The Contiguous United States, Hawaii, portions of Alaska, Puerto Rico, Guam, US Virgin Islands, Northern Marianas Islands, and American SamoaProjection: Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere Visible Scale: Visible at all scales but layer draws best at scales larger than 1:1,000,000Source: USGSUpdate Frequency: AnnualPublication Date: July 2022This layer was symbolized in the ArcGIS Map Viewer and while the features will draw in the Classic Map Viewer the advanced symbology will not. Prior to publication, the network and non-network flowline feature classes were combined into a single flowline layer. Similarly, the Area and Waterbody feature classes were merged under a single schema.Attribute fields were added to the flowline and waterbody layers to simplify symbology and enhance the layer's pop-ups. Fields added include Pop-up Title, Pop-up Subtitle, Esri Symbology (waterbodies only), and Feature Code Description. All other attributes are from the original dataset. No data values -9999 and -9998 were converted to Null values.What can you do with this layer?Feature layers work throughout the ArcGIS system. Generally your work flow with feature layers will begin in ArcGIS Online or ArcGIS Pro. Below are just a few of the things you can do with a feature service in Online and Pro.ArcGIS OnlineAdd this layer to a map in the map viewer. The layer or a map containing it can be used in an application. Change the layer’s transparency and set its visibility rangeOpen the layer’s attribute table and make selections. Selections made in the map or table are reflected in the other. Center on selection allows you to zoom to features selected in the map or table and show selected records allows you to view the selected records in the table.Apply filters. For example you can set a filter to show larger streams and rivers using the mean annual flow attribute or the stream order attribute.Change the layer’s style and symbologyAdd labels and set their propertiesCustomize the pop-upUse as an input to the ArcGIS Online analysis tools. This layer works well as a reference layer with the trace downstream and watershed tools. The buffer tool can be used to draw protective boundaries around streams and the extract data tool can be used to create copies of portions of the data.ArcGIS ProAdd this layer to a 2d or 3d map.Use as an input to geoprocessing. For example, copy features allows you to select then export portions of the data to a new feature class.Change the symbology and the attribute field used to symbolize the dataOpen table and make interactive selections with the mapModify the pop-upsApply Definition Queries to create sub-sets of the layerThis layer is part of the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World that provides an easy way to explore the landscape layers and many other beautiful and authoritative maps on hundreds of topics.Questions?Please leave a comment below if you have a question about this layer, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
