Options  (5)

Method  (3)

Use the "Crust" method to reconstruct curves:

Use the "AlphaShape" method to reconstruct curves:

Surfaces:

Solids:

Set an explicit value for :

Use the "Poisson" method to reconstruct surfaces in 3D when the normals for the points are known:

If no normals are provided, ReconstructionMesh will estimate them before reconstruction:

ProgressReporting  (1)

By default, ReconstructionMesh does report progress:

With the setting ProgressReporting False, ReconstructionMesh does not show the progress of the computation:

VertexNormals  (1)

Specify coordinate orientations using VertexNormals:

This is equivalent to passing oriented points:

Properties & Relations  (7)

ConcaveHullMesh reconstructs meshes using alpha shapes:

This is similar to calling ReconstructionMesh with the Method set to "AlphaShape":

GradientFittedMesh reconstructs meshes using Poisson surface reconstruction:

This is similar to calling ReconstructionMesh with the Method set to "Poisson":

FindCurvePath can be used to reconstruct curves from points:

This is similar to calling ReconstructionMesh with the Method set to "Crust":

ListSurfacePlot3D can also be used to reconstruct 3D surfaces from points:

ConvexHullMesh can reconstruct convex meshes:

Use DelaunayMesh to include the interior simplices:

RegionFit fits a geometric model to a set of points:

EstimatedPointNormals can estimate normals for use in reconstruction:
