Abstract
An imaging system is described, as well as methods of using the system. A method may include: parsing a grid-tree data structure for a plurality of previously-evaluated elevation points; determining that none of the plurality are within a radius of a currently-evaluated elevation point; and then, generating a new segment comprising the currently-evaluated elevation point.

A method, comprising:
- parsing a grid-tree data structure for a plurality of previously-evaluated elevation points;
- determining that none of the plurality are within a radius of a currently-evaluated elevation point;
- and then,
- generating a new segment comprising the currently-evaluated elevation point.

A method, comprising:
- parsing a grid-tree data structure for a plurality of previously-evaluated elevation points;
- determining that one of the plurality are within a radius of a currently-evaluated elevation point, wherein the one comprises a first segment identifier;
- and then,
- tagging the currently-evaluated elevation point with the first segment identifier.
1 more element
A method, comprising:
- parsing a grid-tree data structure for a plurality of previously-evaluated elevation points;
- determining that a first point and a second point of the plurality are within a radius of a currently-evaluated elevation point, wherein the first point comprises a first segment identifier, wherein the second point comprises a second segment identifier;
- merging segments associated with the first and second points;
- and
- adding the currently-evaluated elevation point and a new identifier of the merged segment to the data structure.
