Hi Archana,

vtkSurfaceReconstructionFilter only works on single contiguous closed
surfaces that are densely sampled all over. This limits its
usefulness.

vtkPowerCrustSurfaceReconstruction works better in every situation I
am aware of but can't become part of VTK because it is under a GPL
license. Its homepage is:
