Given a map of any major city, the first thing you might want to do with 
buildings is just a plain old landmark map (i.e. an isometric map with famous 
landmarks as properly modelled 3d objects).  

Anything more than that (e.g. heights of a block of flats, or of a tree) 
surely needs lidar to achieve any significant coverage...

Or dedicated 3d modellers, i.e. start talking to VTerrain rather than 
reinventing stuff ourselves
