Abstract: Thin surfaces, such as the leaves of a plant, pose a significant challenge for implicit surface reconstruction techniques, which typically assume a closed, orientable surface. We show that by approximately interpolating a point cloud of the surface (augmented with off-surface points) and restricting the evaluation of the interpolant to a tight domain around the point cloud, we need only require an orientable surface for the reconstruction. We use polyharmonic smoothing splines to fit approximate interpolants to noisy data, and a partition of unity method with an octree-like strategy for choosing subdomains. This method enables us to interpolate an N-point dataset in O(N) operations. We present results for point clouds of capsicum and tomato plants, scanned with a handheld device. An important outcome of the work is that sufficiently smooth leaf surfaces are generated that are amenable for droplet spreading simulations.
