Triangulated Irregular Networks

Triangulated Irregular Networks is a vector-based spatial data structure that partitions a terrain surface into a set of non-overlapping, contiguous triangular facets formed from irregularly spaced data points with x, y, and z coordinates, uniquely distinguished by its adaptive resolution and variable point density in representing topographic relief.
