  3. Point-finite collection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point-finite_collection

    In mathematics, a collection or family of subsets of a topological space is said to be point-finite if every point of lies in only finitely many members of [1][2] A metacompact space is a topological space in which every open cover admits a point-finite open refinement. Every locally finite collection of subsets of a topological space is also ...

  5. Point cloud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_cloud

    A point cloud is a discrete set of data points in space. The points may represent a 3D shape or object. Each point position has its set of Cartesian coordinates (X, Y, Z). [1][2] Points may contain data other than position such as RGB colors, [2] normals, [3] timestamps [4] and others. Point clouds are generally produced by 3D scanners or by ...

  6. Point (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_(geometry)

    In geometry, a point is an abstract idealization of an exact position, without size, in physical space, [1] or its generalization to other kinds of mathematical spaces.As zero-dimensional objects, points are usually taken to be the fundamental indivisible elements comprising the space, of which one-dimensional curves, two-dimensional surfaces, and higher-dimensional objects consist; conversely ...

  7. Point particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_particle

    A point particle, ideal particle[ 1 ] or point-like particle (often spelled pointlike particle) is an idealization of particles heavily used in physics. Its defining feature is that it lacks spatial extension; being dimensionless, it does not take up space. [ 2 ] A point particle is an appropriate representation of any object whenever its size ...

  9. GeoJSON - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoJSON

    GeoJSON [1] is an open standard format designed for representing simple geographical features, along with their non-spatial attributes.It is based on the JSON format.. The features include points (therefore addresses and locations), line strings (therefore streets, highways and boundaries), polygons (countries, provinces, tracts of land), and multi-part collections of these types.
