However, this multi-stage approach typically produces low-quality results, limiting its applicability in real-world data production. To address this issue, we present OBMv2, an end-to-end and promptable model for polygonal footprint prediction. Unlike its predecessor OBM, OBMv2 introduces a novel Self Offset Attention (SOFA) mechanism that improves performance across diverse building types, from bungalows to skyscrapers, enabling end-to-end footprint prediction without post-processing. Additionally, we propose a Multi-level Information System (MISS) to effectively leverage roof masks, building masks, and offsets for accurate footprint prediction. We evaluate OBMv2 on the BONAI and OmniCity-view3 datasets and demonstrate its generalization on the Huizhou test set.
