<div>Dear Amy</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks for the reply, I would like to clarify some other issues as well as mentioned In the VTK book - The Visualization Toolkit An Object-Oriented Approach To 3D Graphics, Kitware. What is the difference between Polygonal Data and Unstructured grid, in terms of memory allocation. Sorry, its a beginner question, but i kinda need the information, any other help on data formats would be good also.<br>

If so, the point cloud generated is a vtkPolyData. If you're creating the point cloud by hand, you could make it either a vtkPolyData or a vtkUnstructuredGrid.<br>

<div><span class="e" id="q_1194d1b06d63f385_1">Hi gys,<br> Just some theory questions to ask.. I have to write a paper on data formats. I found alot of information from the book<br><br>The Visualization Toolkit An Object-Oriented Approach To 3D Graphics, Kitware.<br>
<br>However, I would still like to clarify some stuff, does point cloud come under the term unstructured points. Any other papers that I can refer to ..beside the book. I have read the file formats.<br><br></span></div>------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
