PointsGeometry

class pyslm.geometry.PointsGeometry(mid=0, bid=0, coords=None)

Bases: pyslm.geometry.geometry.LayerGeometry

PointsGeometry represents a LayerGeometry consisting of a series of discrete or disconnected exposure points \([(x_0,y_0), ..., (x_{n-1},x_{n-1})]\) . This allows the user to prescribe very specific exposures to the bed, for very controlled and articulated scan styles. Typically, the exposure points are used either for lattice structures or support structures.

Warning

It is impracticable and inefficient to use these for large aerial regions.

Methods Summary

numPoints()	Number of individual point exposures within the geometry group
type()	Returns which type the layerGeometry is in the derived class.
