Abstract
We present a construction of a visually smooth surface which interpola tes to position values and normal vectors of randomly distributed poin ts on a 3D object. The method is local and uses quartic triangular and bicubic quadrilateral patches without splits. It heavily relies on an edge deleting algorithm which, starting from a given triangulation, d erives a suitable combination of three- and four sided patches.
