Detailed Description

Abstract interface to a TIN plate.

This abstract class defines the interface for triangular plate. The plate is assumed to be a set of 3 body-fixed vertex points that describe a portion of the surface digital elevation model (DEM).

The interface allows for repeated queries (e.g., ray intersection, point containment) of the plate represented by the object containing the plate.

This class is not directly instantiable but is typically provided by a distinct plate model implementation (e.g., NAIF DSK).

This class can be cloned but not copied directly.
