We consider the Multi-Triangulation, a general model for representing surfaces at variable based on triangle meshes. We analyse characteristics of the model that make it effective for supporting basic operations such as extraction of a surface approximation, and point location. An interruptible algorithm for extracting a representation at a resolution variable over the surface is presented. Different heuristics for binding the model are considered and compared.

Abstract

We consider the Multi-Triangulation, a general model for representing surfaces at variable based on triangle meshes. We analyse characteristics of the model that make it effective for supporting basic operations such as extraction of a surface approximation, and point location. An interruptible algorithm for extracting a representation at a resolution variable over the surface is presented. Different heuristics for binding the model are considered and compared. Results on both construction and the extraction algorithm are presented.
