hmtoggle_arrow1Triangulate XYZ points based on .csv file source data before mapping, and use linear shape function mapping (2D/3D target elements).
1.Create a field entity using a discrete .csv file.

2.Realize the field using the triangulation method. A source mesh is automatically created using the xyz points in the .csv file, and mapping is calculated using the linear shape function.

3.Contour the mapped temperature.

hmtoggle_arrow1Inverse distance weighted mapping
1.Create a field entity using a discrete .csv file.
2.Realize the field using the inverse distance weighting method. A source mesh is automatically created using the xyz points in the .csv file, and mapping is calculated using the linear shape function.

hmtoggle_arrow1Mapping target nodes, which fall outside the source elements, using the close point approach; mapping the nodes which fall inside the source elements using shape functions.

If the target model is slightly bigger than the source model (within the tolerance specified in the Field Realization dialog), the close point method will be used to find the values of the nodes outside the model.  Use shapefunctionandproximity instead of shapefunction.

Provide the correct Search Radius to detect the nodes which fall outside of the source model. If the Search Radios = 0 , the distance will be automatically found and searched.
