| Popis | Surfaces built out of triangles are often used for computer modeling of terrain unevenness. A well known and studied type of such surface is the Triangulated Irregular Network (TIN). TIN surfaces are often used in geographical information systems (GIS) for modeling coal deposits or in oceanography. In such cases the terrain is usually split into layers modeled as the TIN surfaces. In order to find the mass of a particular terrain substance (e. g. coal) it is required to compute the signed volume bounded by two TIN surfaces. The article presents a comprehensive algorithm for solving this problem, including a reference implementation in C# language. |
