ABSTRACT:
A digitizing apparatus capable of significantly shortening processing time is arranged to obtain straight portions from measured point-group data and is arranged to obtain the coordinates of intersections of two neighboring straight lines in sequential operations. The digitizing apparatus obtains form data of a subject three-dimensional model by scanning measurement lines on the surface of said three-dimensional model and includes a continuous cycle scanning measuring section for measuring coordinates of points on the measurement lines which are positioned at intervals of constant scanning distances, a measured-coordinate temporary storage section for temporarily storing the coordinates, an extension-intersection calculating section for extracting straight line portions in accordance with the coordinates read from the measured-coordinate temporary storage section and for calculating an extension-intersection as an intersection of two neighboring straight lines, and an extension-intersection storage section for storing the extension-intersection calculated in the extension-intersection calculating section.
