| Summary: | With the spread of camera-equipped devices, massive images and videos are recorded on construction sites daily, and the ever-increasing volume of digital images has inspired scholars to visually capture the actual status of construction sites from them. Three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction is the key to connecting the Building Information Model and the project schedule to daily construction images, which enables managers to compare as-planned with as-built status and detect deviations and therefore monitor project progress. Many scholars have carried out extensive research and produced a variety of intricate methods. However, few studies comprehensively summarize the existing technologies and introduce the homogeneity and differences of these technologies. Researchers cannot clearly identify the relationship between various methods to solve the difficulties. Therefore, this paper focuses on the general technical path of various methods and sorts out a comprehensive research map, to provide reference for researchers in the selection of research methods and paths. This is followed by identifying gaps in knowledge and highlighting future research directions. Finally, key findings are summarized.
