Abstract
A method of generating a surface model of a physical environment includes obtaining an image of the physical environment. The method also includes generating a planar polygon mesh from at least the image. The method further includes extracting a boundary polygon of the planar polygon mesh. Moreover, the method includes generating a convex hull for the boundary polygon of the surface mesh. In addition, the method includes generating a minimal area oriented boundary polygon from the convex hull. The method may also include generating a maximal area oriented internal polygon inside of the boundary polygon of the planar polygon mesh.
