Abstract

Three-dimensional reconstruction of geographic zones relief is a process with wide applications in GIS type products, especially those that implement models for simulation of various phenomenons that may affect a specific geographic area (floods, terrain slips etc). By three-dimensional reconstruction of geographic area relief starting from serial sections, we understand regenerating of the area surface in the form of a set of connected triangles. The results of the reconstruction process may be introduced in various three-dimensional visualization programs, or used as an input for relief analysis programs
