    Two local least-squares approximations for reconstructing the Cartesian components of vector fields at the nodes of logically rectangular grids from its normal components to the edges (faces in 3-D) of the grid cell are discussed and compared. This is an important problem in multifield computations when different fields are known at the nodes, faces or edges and the reconstruction of all fields is necessary. The presented methods are useful in scientific computations and also may play an important role in visualization.
