program with the corrections:

You are still missing triangles on the convex hull Evgenyi.

Same point cloud as on reply #16 in this thread, Evgenyi

You still miss two small triangle on the outside

program with the corrections:
can you provide a test points list which will show the difference between old and new versions?

In order  to generate contours, I have modified Piazza's Triangulate to work with pointers into ptlst instead of coordinates.

That is the trianglelst is now stored as '(((4 0 2) nil) ((4 2 3) nil) ((3 2 1) T) ((2 0 1) T)) where (nth 4 ptlst) are the coordinates of the first vertex of
the first  triangle.

From trianglelst I now generates an edges list edgelst of the form:
     '((4 0) (0 2) (2 4) (4 2) (2 3) (3 4) (3 2) (2 1) (1 3) (2 0) (0 1) (1 2))

Again we have pointers into ptlst.

With this I can follow triangle from one to the other by finding the reverse of an edge.
That is edge (0 2) is neighbor with edge (2 0).  If there is no reverse it means that we are on
the outside (convex hull) of the triangulation.

We also know that a contour crosses a triangle on two edges except in the case where one
or both points defining an edge are exactly on the level of the contour.

Anyway, here is the modified routine :

It now need to be optimized, probably sorting the edges would help.

Here is the point cloud :

Holas:
Very small differences, but actually looks better. :-)
The best test is made ​​with points that are in one of the sought contour. So, if the new curve (polyline) boundary passes over the points, is that the process can be taken for good.
Greetings  :-)
PS. In the dwg , old solution on color 21, new en cyan / blue

Hello all:
The slopes plan also improves, the changes are more evenly distributed.
Thanks Eugeny. :-)

Holas, Sofito

I did contour your drawing to get an idea of speed. On a 1m. interval took about 15 sec. on my laptop.

However you end up with joined plines at the proper level.  Also I am sure that this could be optimized
and accelerated quite a bit.  Also the triangle list could be destroyed once the edges list is created.

What I did to make the contour pass over the point is to disturb the elevation of the point(s)
by 1e -8 so that the edge is included in the contlst.

I notice on your revised drawing that some of the color 21 contour turn on themselves which is a
big No...No

Will look at it some more.

Hello:

I did contour your drawing to get an idea of speed. On a 1m. interval took about 15 sec. on my laptop.<<<< 6 seg in my PC....is reasonable , for me.

Also I am sure that this could be optimized <<<< There are 3 or 4 methods ( p.e.geometric general calculation ) that are not highly purified. If you have any interest in something really fast ( productive? ), please write me to e-mail private.

I notice on your revised drawing that some of the color 21 contour turn on themselves which is a
big
<<<< is a problem that I could not solve. It occurs when there is a flat surface. The contour, effectively, turns on itself. She surrounds the flat area is closed, leaving some segment no possibility of being soldiers. Any idea to resolve it?

Will look at it some more.<<<< It is a fascinating subject

I confirm that the program does not give the best result. But I have no need to continue in the near future to work on this program. The program was created for the contest on this site. Problem solver, I have used in the abridged version. All necessary for me, the decisions necessary for me, I already have. I give permission to fully use its program to your goals, including changes to its complement and so on. I ask only to maintain the link in the code for me.

PS. If you need to modify this program, or you want to order from me, a new program for your internal purposes only - please contact me directly offline. I am always ready to consider any offers.

Best Regards, ElpanovEvgeniy
