Accurate interpretation and segmentation of 3D point clouds in real-world urban environments is a critical challenge in geospatial analysis, particularly due to the complexity of real-world scenes, inevitable data uncertainties, and potential annotation errors. This paper proposes a confidence-aware deep learning framework to refine the segmentation accuracy of real-world point cloud data. By incorporating multi-source information, such as aerial imagery, and embedding geospatial prior knowledge, this framework models data uncertainty through point-wise confidence scores. Besides, we design an iterative online learning strategy, allowing the network to improve both its predictions and the quality of training labels. Extensive experiments on large-scale airborne laser-scanned data demonstrate that our framework effectively enhances training data by reducing label noise and improving annotation quality, which leads to more robust, generalizable model performance.
