Translation from PtNorms to gocad Triangulated Surface

PtNorms2trisurf

Transforms PtNorms data into a gocad triangulated surface using the connectivity of some other trisurf. Thus an original trisurf can be used to establish the connectivity of points that were modeled or migrated from that surface. Points that were originally neighbors are forced to be neighbors in the output triangulated surface. Points that are lost during migration or modeling, will cause holes in the final triangulated surface.

Syntax Summary

[in_relation= relation_filename]
[out_tsurf= out_trisurface_name]
[verbose=]

General Information

PtNorms2trisurf Converts a PtNorms file into a gocad triangulated surface. The spacial points specified by the PtNorms file can be related to the vertices in the input trisurf by a relation file giving the index of a point from the PtNorm file followed by the index of the matching vertex in blank delimited columns. If no in_relation arguement is specified, then the relation is assumed to be the identity. That is the first PtNorms point is associated with the first trisurf vertex and the second PtNorms point with the second trisurf vertex. And so on. Trisurfs are represented in "old gocad" format. PtNorms2trisurf uses the dds I/O system.
