Abstract

Given a finite set of points sampled from a surface, the taskof surface reconstruction is to find a triangular mesh connecting the sample points and approximating the surface. The solution presented in this paper takes into consideration additional information often available in sample data sets in form of scan paths. This additional information allows to cope with edges or ridges more reliably than algorithms developed for unstructured point clouds.
