CGAL 5.2 - Polygonal Surface Reconstruction
CGAL::Polygonal_surface_reconstruction< GeomTraits > Class Template Reference

#include <CGAL/Polygonal_surface_reconstruction.h>

Definition

Implementation of the Polygonal Surface Reconstruction method.

Given a set of 3D points with unoriented normals sampled from the outer boundary of a piecewise planar object, the Polygonal Surface Reconstruction method [1] outputs a simplified and watertight surface mesh interpolating the input point set.

The method first generates a set of face candidates by intersecting the planar primitives. Then an optimal subset of the candidate faces is selected through optimization under hard constraints that enforce the final model to be manifold and watertight.

The reconstruction assumes the planar segmentation of the point cloud is provided in the input.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ Polygonal_surface_reconstruction()

template<class GeomTraits >
template<typename PointRange , typename PointMap , typename NormalMap , typename IndexMap >
CGAL::Polygonal_surface_reconstruction< GeomTraits >::Polygonal_surface_reconstruction ( const PointRange &  points,
PointMap  point_map,
NormalMap  normal_map,
IndexMap  index_map 
)

Creates a Polygonal Surface Reconstruction object.

After construction, candidate faces are generated and point/face confidence values are computed, allowing to reuse them in the subsequent reconstruction step with different parameters.

Template Parameters
PointRangeis the range of input points, model of ConstRange.
PointMapis a model of ReadablePropertyMap with value type GeomTraits::Point_3.
NormalMapis a model of ReadablePropertyMap with value type GeomTraits::Vector_3.
IndexMapis a model of ReadablePropertyMap with value type int.
Parameters
pointsrange of input points.
point_mapproperty map: value_type of typename PointRange::const_iterator -> Point_3
normal_mapproperty map: value_type of typename PointRange::const_iterator -> Vector_3
index_mapproperty map: value_type of typename PointRange::const_iterator -> int, denoting the index of the plane it belongs to (-1 if the point is not assigned to a plane)

double  wt_complexity = 0.30 
)
