Surface Meshing (Generation)
This Filter generates a Triangle Geometry from an Image Geometry that represents a surface mesh of the present Features. The algorithm proceeds by creating a pair of Triangles for each face of the Cell where the neighboring Cell have a different Feature Id value. The meshing operation is extremely quick but can result in a surface mesh that is very "stair stepped". The user is encouraged to use a smoothing operation to reduce this "blockiness".
For more information on surface meshing, visit the tutorial.
