Abstract
In order to visualize or calculate a volume or an area of a structure modeled by using object types that overlap, topological items of boundary representations of the objects are provided with information on whether a topological item is indicated as clipped or not clipped; and topological items indicated as not clipped are used and topological items indicated as clipped are ignored when a model for the structure is visualized or used for volume or area calculations.
