Abstract
A system and method for representing a two-dimensional spatial transformation that describes the transformation by an inverse mapped grid data set. The grid data for each coordinate is surface fitted on an array of rectangular patches defined in the output space using numerical techniques. Error analysis determines whether a finer mesh resolution is required for surface fitting. The spatial transformation is then defined by the array of rectangular surface patches and the set of surface coefficients such that the spatial transformation can be executed through evaluation of the surface polynomials. The two-dimensional surface polynomial representation allows the transformation to be easily adjusted for scale changes and zooming and panning effects.
