Merging Triangulations and Point Clouds

The focus here is on merging: Two point clouds with different properties may overlap and need to be combined. Alternatively, you might need to merge triangulated objects with point clouds, such as a road with a terrain point cloud. This article presents practical solutions for merging triangulations and point clouds in 2.5D. The C++ source…Continue readingMerging Triangulations and Point Clouds

Merging Two Triangulations

Just like the previous article, this one focuses on the C++ example of merging. In this part, we describe the function demo3_mergeShapes(), which explains how to merge two triangulations. You pass two zones to the function: one is the higher-priority triangulation, while the other has just base priority. The higher-priority triangulation remains intact, and we…Continue readingMerging Two Triangulations
