In meshsimp: Simplification of Surface Triangular Meshes with Associated Distributed Data

The R package meshsimp

The R package meshsimp offers a high-level access to the C++ library meshsimplification, implementing a simplification strategy for surface triangular meshes with associated distributed data. To expose the C++ code to R, the API provided by Rcpp and RcppEigen is used.

The tree structure of the package root folder is compliant with the standard. In detail: - src contains C++ header and source files; - R contains R source files; - demo contains scripts examplifying the use of the package; - data contains R datasets storing three-dimensional surface grids; - inst/extdata contains three-dimensional surface grids in AVS UCD file format.

To install the package, first make sure that the package devtools is correctly installed on the current workstation. Then, from the package root folder type:

R -e "library(devtools); install()" --silent

Administrator privileges may be required.
