[osg-users] Geometry of Generic 3D Surface from Collection of Points

[Erik Hensens]

Thanks Robert. That answers my question perfectly - I figured there was a simple way to do what I wanted using OSG only but that I just couldn't find it. I'm fine with using a different approach to solve this problem. I haven't looked too far but perhaps CGAL can provide me with what I need.

Thanks again!
