Three-dimensional digital images are encountered ma variety of problems, including computed tomography, biological modeling, space planning, and computer vision. A wide spectrum of data structures are available for the computer representation of such images. This paper is a tutorial survey of three-dimensmnal spatial-data representation methods emphasizing techniques that apply to cellular (or voxel-based) images. We attempt to unify data structures for representing interior, surface, and structural information of objects in such images by companng their relative efficmncy. The derivation of high-level representatmns from serial sectmn images is also discussed The representations include topological representations (Euler characteristic and adjacency trees), geometrical representatmns {borders, medial axes, and features), and spatial organization representations {generalized cyhnders and skeletons).
