Abstract
Embodiments presented herein provide techniques for predicting the topography of a product produced from a manufacturing process. One embodiment includes generating a plurality of prediction models. Each of the plurality of prediction models corresponds to a respective one of a plurality of positional coordinates of a product produced from a manufacturing process. The method also includes receiving a set of user-specified input parameters to apply to the manufacturing control process. The method further includes generating a graphical representation of a topography map for the product for the user-specified of input parameters based on the plurality of prediction models.
