Abstract

Texture mapping of 3D models is an important problem in realistic graphics. However, there are few methods that are put forward to solve texture mapping of models constructed from nature scenes for the reason that those 3D models are difficult to parameterize to 2D. This paper proposes an algorithm for 3D geological models so that the texture on the side part will be well-balanced. This algorithm breaks the side part loop of 3D geological models along several edges, and unfolds the loop like a 2D plane so that the calculation of texture coordinates can be uncomplicated. At last, the algorithm is implemented and experiments are carried out to verify its effectiveness.
