Triangulation for Simulations

Simulations of large areas can be accelerated when using a triangulation for the floor field calculation instead of using a regular grid. A triangulation usually reduces the number of mesh points enormously.

Apply following steps to use a triangulation for a simulation run:

  1. Generate a helper mesh by using the GUI.
  2. Use class EikMeshPoly.java to convert the helper mesh into the final mesh.
  3. Place the final mesh where the scenario file is stored in subdirectory meshes/<scenario_name>.poly.
  4. In scenario file, change createMethod to FAST_MARCHING_TRI.

The procedure is depicted in the following figures:

The final triangulation looks like this:
