Item 1: Crater   Author SYCODE Product Testing Team Description The terrain mesh of this crater was reconstructed using point data from a geological survey. The surface was described by 4,993 points. It took only 0.75 seconds to create the terrain mesh. The terrain mesh has 4,993 vertices and 9,822 triangular faces. 4,933 points Terrain mesh containing 9,822 triangular faces

Item 2: Moon Surface   Author SYCODE Product Testing Team Description Figure (a) shows 1,413 points describing a road in a hilly area. Towards the center of the image, notice that the number of points describing the road is much lesser as compared to the points towards the top of the image. Figure (b) shows a terrain mesh containing 2,785 faces. Notice that the road towards the center of the image is not accurate since some points are joined to points at the bottom of the road fill slope. Figure (c) shows 12 breaklines added along the direction of the road. Figure (d) shows a much better terrain mesh which respects the 12 breaklines. (a) 1,413 points (b) Terrain mesh containing 2,785 triangular faces (c) 12 breaklines added (d) Terrain mesh containing 2,785 triangular faces

Item 3: 2.2 Million Points   Author Paul Buckland Description This is live data from a project wherein TerrainCAD successfully created a mesh from 2.2 million points. The mesh was exported to a STL file and later imported into 3DS Max for further processing. 2.2 million points Magnified view of a part of the point set Terrain mesh imported into 3DS Max Magnified portion of the terrain mesh
