The paper deals with a new method for the reconstruction of the distance function. The interface is updated by solving a transport equation. The reinitialization of the interface is based on solving an initial value problem for the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. This problem is solved by a truly upwind method -- an modification of the algorithm introduced by \textit{M. Sussman, P. Smereka} and \textit{S. Osher} [J. Comput. Phys. 114, No. 1, 146-159 (1994; Zbl 0808.76077)]. A high-resolution version of the method is presented.
