ABSTRACT:
This invention presents methods and systems for generating and handling a harmonized network of points. More generally, this invention reorganizes and optimizes a network of points in terms of spatial distribution regularity. Implementations may allow users to manipulate the network of points while maintaining the organization of the network of points. The network of points can define a surface, which can include Béziers and Nurbs three-dimensional surfaces. The surface can be used in a CAD system.
