You can solve 3 Lapacians problem (one for each color component) to calculate the interpolation of the color.

Imagine that the red component of the color is like temperature. So you solve a problem with impose temperature on the sampling points to get the « interpolated » color in the rest of the domain.

> I am trying to develop a surface spatial distribution of data onto a pre-existing 3D model. The model I currently have is composed of some 80K polygons in mesh format (.obj file, captured via 3D scanner) and what I'm trying to figure out is how to assign several areas of the mesh with values (ie: isotopic data) and have the areas interpolate to cover the surface.

(that is, assign the "dots" in the "example" image with values and have the "dots" interpolate amongst each other over the surface of the model)?
