Primitive Information

Post by tsch_kl »

Hi Daniel,

after using the RANSAC, we will get a plane primitive with specific information such as Normal, Dip/Dip direction. Could you elaborate on this? Could find any information.

I suggest that the Normal is the plane equation in coordinate form and the dip suggests rotation to the x- or y-axis, is this correct?

Regards

Dip and dip direction are geology conventions: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strike_and_dip
