Description

The operation creates a surface object basing on the input points in 3D. The X and Y coordinates of the output surface object points are very regular, so the whole output object has neatly organized structure. Internally, the XY plane is divided into rectangular tiles with dimensions equal to inXScale and inYScale. Each tile will represent one output surface point. The point is computed as an average of all input points that are located in the corresponding tile. If none of the input points is present in a tile, the output point for such a tile is indefinite and set to the point in infinity.

Hints

The filter can be used to reduce the size of the input data. The higher the inXScale and inYScale values are, the smaller output surface size is.
