hull: A hull is the two dimensional area for which a TIN is generated.� Within the hull, including its edges, the Z value at any X-Y position can be interpolated.� A hull is convex when all lines that connect two points on the hull boundary fall entirely within the hull.� A hull for a U-shaped area, for example, is not convex.�
