Aggregation of predictions to geospatial polygons: Consider implementing an approximate intersection for selecting contributing mesh faces #82

Open youngdjn opened 4 months ago

youngdjn commented 4 months ago

Selecting all mesh faces that intersect the crown polygon is likely faster than computing an overlay/intersection that clips partial overlaps. Because mesh faces are likely almost always very small relative to tree crowns, including the area of the face outside the crown would likely have minimal impact. If this feature gets implemented, it should be added as an option and probably not the default.

The initial, expensive, version of this approach is being developed on feature/DR/classify-polygon
