Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for generating a patch surface model of a geometric structure. The system includes a computer-based model construction system configured to be coupled to a device that includes at least one sensor configured to acquire a set of original location data points corresponding to respective locations on a surface of the geometric structure, the computer-based model construction system further configured to generate a reference surface based on the acquired original location data points, subdivide the reference surface into a plurality of triangles, project at least some of the original location data points onto a respective nearest point on the subdivided reference surface, compute a function that morphs the projected location data points towards the original location data points to generate a patch surface model, and determine a boundary for the patch surface model.
