hypso

Compute the maximum height, length, width and corresponding
hypsodonty index (ratio of the maximum height over the maximum length)

Tools for exploring the topography of 3d triangle meshes.
The functions were developed with dental surfaces in mind, but could be
applied to any triangle mesh of class 'mesh3d'. More specifically, 'doolkit'
allows to isolate the border of a mesh, or a subpart of the mesh using the
polygon networks method; crop a mesh; compute basic descriptors (elevation,
orientation, footprint area); compute slope, angularity and relief index
