To navigate to the adjacent cell, it suffices to identify the edge \(\epsilon\) intersecting the isoline, and then navigating to the triangle/cell that is incident to \(\epsilon\). It is possible that there is no adjacent cell, if the boundary of the convex hull is reached in a TIN for instance. This requires that the TIN be stored in a topological data structure in which the adjacency between the triangles is available (for a grid this is implied). diff --git a/interpol/figs/polynomial.pdf b/interpol/figs/polynomial.pdf index 3ef5605..a2a289d 100644 Binary files a/interpol/figs/polynomial.pdf and b/interpol/figs/polynomial.pdf differ diff --git a/topofeatures/topofeatures.tex b/topofeatures/topofeatures.tex index a47b489..39b5ef4 100755 --- a/topofeatures/topofeatures.tex +++ b/topofeatures/topofeatures.tex @@ -31,7 +31,7 @@ \section{Slope} \end{figure} The slope at a given location $p$ on a terrain is defined by the plane $H$ that is tangent at $p$ to the surface representing the terrain (see Figure~\ref{fig:slope_concept}). -What we casually refer to as ``slope'' has actually two components: (1) gradient; (2) aspect (see Figure~\ref{fig:slope_aspect}). +What we casually refer to as `slope' has actually two components: (1) gradient; (2) aspect (see Figure~\ref{fig:slope_aspect}). \begin{figure} \centering \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{figs/slope_aspect}
