Computer vision has been gaining interest in a wide range of research areas in recent years, from medical to industrial robotics. The architecture, engineering and construction and facility management sector ranks as one of the most intensive fields where vision-based systems/methods are used to facilitate decision making processes during the construction phase. Construction sites make efficient monitoring extremely tedious and difficult due to clutter and disorder. Extensive research has been carried out to investigate the potential to utilise computer vision for assisting on-site managerial tasks. This paper reviews studies on computer vision in the past decade, with a focus on state-of-the-art methods in a typical vision-based scheme, and discusses challenges associated with their application. This research aims to guide practitioners to successfully find suitable approaches for a particular project.

近年来，从医学到工业机器人技术，计算机视觉一直在广泛的研究领域中引起人们的兴趣。建筑，工程，建筑和设施管理部门被认为是最密集的领域之一，在该阶段，基于视觉的系统/方法可用于促进施工阶段的决策过程。由于混乱和混乱，施工现场使高效监控变得非常繁琐且困难。已经进行了广泛的研究，以调查利用计算机视觉辅助现场管理任务的潜力。本文回顾了过去十年中有关计算机视觉的研究，重点是典型的基于视觉的方案中的最新方法，并讨论了与它们的应用相关的挑战。
