[opendx-users] Volume calculation

[Jonathan Hedstrom]

Hi all.  

I have a large continuous 3D field that I transform by 'clipping' it; basically assigning a 0 to points that fall below a given value and a 1 to points above that value.  This results in a collection of disconnected volumes.  Does anyone have any suggestions on a simple way to calculate the volume of each separated volume?

I have done this using the Connected module from the Bonus Pack.  The problem here is that this module fails for very highly continuous surfaces.  Also, for the work I am doing, calculating the volume from the isosurface is not necessarily desirable.


Thanks,
Jonathan
