We describe a system for detection and description of buildings in aerial scenes. This is a difficult task as the aerial images contain a variety of objects. Low-level segmentation processes give highly fragmented segments due to a number of reasons. We use a perceptual grouping approach to collect these fragments and discard those that come from other sources. We use shape properties of the buildings for this. We use shadows to help form and verify the hypotheses generated by the grouping process. This latter step also provides 3-D descriptions of the buildings. Our system has been tested on a number of examples and is able to work with overhead or oblique views.<>
