Structural damage assessment is a priority following disaster events but, especially in complex urban settings, remains a significant challenge. Many studies have explored the potential of virtually every type of remote sensing data, but in particular vertical images have been found to have substantial limitations, as damage information is largely restricted to roofs and proxies such as blow-out debris near buildings, which may signal extensive damage even in case of an intact roof. Oblique imagery has been identified as a more useful data source that provides multi-perspective information, overcoming the perspective constraints of vertical imagery. This paper addresses damage assessm...
