[vtkusers] Information about vtkShepardMethod....

[Eric E. Monson]

The Input can be any type of grid, but the output is vtkImageData.. 

http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkShepardMethod.html 

"...vtkShepardMethod is a filter used to visualize unstructured point data using Shepard's method. The method works by resampling the unstructured points onto a structured points set...."

I think the probe filter works with any type of output mesh, but not Shepard.

This class wont work for unstructuredgrid..?? ---------- Original message ---------- From:Eric E.

To: Rakesh Patil <rakeshthp at in.com>  Hey Rakesh, I think the dimensions are like the resolution of the grid that will be used to sample the data (i.e. how many point the output structured grid will have in each direction). The ModelBounds is the (boundaries of the) position in space that will be sampled. -Eric ------------------------------------------------------Eric E MonsonDuke Visualization Technology Group On Apr 23, 2010, at 1:34 AM, Rakesh Patil wrote:Hi Can you briefly explain me what these parameters signify..?? shepard->SetSampleDimensions(2,2,2); shepard->SetModelBounds(100,300,-10,10,-10,10); I mean, what is the dimension and what are the model bounds that have to be set here..??
