<div dir="ltr">Hi Rahul,</div><div dir="ltr">It seems that you want to provide x,y,z coordinates and get the index of the point back. Once you have the index, you can use polydata's "GetPointData" method to access the point data.</div>
<div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">To do this, you can use the vtkKdTreePointLocator which as methods like "FindClosestPoint", "FindNClosestPoints", and "FindPointsWithinRadius". There are a few examples of how to use this class at <a href="http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx#KD-Tree" target="_blank">http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx#KD-Tree</a>. There are other classes like vtkPointLocator, vtkOctreePointLocator which you can look at too.</div>
