Abstract:
A computer implemented method for forming a first set of geometric objects, based on a second set of geometric objects and a third set of geometric objects, wherein said second set of geometric objects contains a second set of matching points and said third set of geometric objects contains a third set of matching points, wherein each matching point in said second set of matching points corresponds to a matching point in said third set of matching points, said method comprising the steps of:(a) identifying matching points in said second set of matching points and corresponding matching points in said third set of matching points that have potential for causing topology deviations in the first set of geometric objects; and (b) transforming points in said second set of geometric objects to obtain points in said first set of geometric objects, based on relationships between corresponding matching points in said second set of matching points and said third set of matching points other than said matching points identified in said step (a).
