I'm in the middle of something along those lines. I have digitised plan
and elevations of tree root systems, and i want to re-create the three
dimensional structure. As I have plan and elevation, all the information
is there, it's just a matter of matching the bits. This is a major task
though, the 'images' are very large collections of strings of line
segments (Terracad export format i think). If there's anything out there
on getting three dimensional data from slightly mis-matched plan and
elevation data, I'd be very interested.
I'm not sure if your problem is exactly the same, are you dealing with
structured data or bitmaps (images). Anyway, if your request doesn't
bring forth anything here, comp.graphics would probably be the place to
try.
