TIN2VTK

Description

This tool converts datasets in TIN-format, usually used in geographic information systems (GIS), into VTK-format. The TIN-format stores triangular irregular networks which can be considered a subclass of triangulated 2D meshes. VTK stores such irregular networks as unstructured grids in *.vtu-files.

Usage

   -o <string>,  --output-vtu-file <string>
     (required)  the name of the file the mesh will be written to

   -i <string>,  --input-tin-file <string>
     (required)  the name of the file containing the input TIN

   --,  --ignore_rest
