Abstract
A method includes steps of: (1) obtaining a metrology data set and a build data set representing an article; (2) determining a surface geometry of the article in the metrology data set and the build data set; (4) selecting a metrology data subset from the metrology data set representing the surface geometry; (5) selecting a build data subset from the build data set representing the surface geometry; (6) generating a metrology point cloud in a metrology coordinate system; (7) generating a build point cloud in a build coordinate system; (8) registering the metrology point cloud and the build point cloud; (9) calculating a transform between the metrology coordinate system and the build coordinate system; and (10) applying the transform to the metrology data set to convert the metrology data set to the build coordinate system.
