CGAL is a collaborative effort of several sites in Europe and Israel. The goal
|
||
|
|
is to make the most important of the solutions and methods developed in
|
||
|
|
computational geometry available to users in industry and academia in a C++
|
||
|
|
library. The goal is to provide easy access to useful, reliable geometric
|
||
|
|
algorithms.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The CGAL library contains:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* the Kernel with geometric primitives such as points, vectors, lines,
|
||
|
|
predicates for testing things such as relative positions of points, and
|
||
|
|
operations such as intersections and distance calculation.
|
||
|
|
* the Basic Library which is a collection of standard data structures and
|
||
|
|
geometric algorithms, such as convex hull in 2D/3D, (Delaunay)
|
||
|
|
triangulation in 2D/3D, planar map, polyhedron, smallest enclosing
|
||
|
|
circle, and multidimensional query structures.
|
||
|
|
* the Support Library which offers interfaces to other packages, e.g., for
|
||
|
|
visualisation, and I/O, and other support facilities.
