mesh_contours_numpy

compas.datastructures.mesh_contours_numpy(mesh, levels=None, density=100)[source]

Compute the contours of the mesh.

Parameters
  • mesh (Mesh) – The mesh object.

  • N (int, optional) – The density of the contours. Default is 50.

Returns

tuple – A tuple of a list of levels and a list of contours.

The list of levels contains the z-values at each of the contours. Each contour is a list of paths, and each path is a list polygons.

Notes

The contours are defined as the isolines of the z-coordinates of the vertices of the mesh.
