Essentially start with two triangles forming the bounding surface.
Then add the point that has the greatest error. Retriangulate.
Recalcuate errors for each remaining point, add the one with the
greatest error. Lather, rinse, repeat.

clipping.

Working towards the ability to specify elevations for a polygon in it's
...
intermediate mode. The goal then is that these elevations would be
preserved throughout the tile construction process and the surrounding
geometry would fill in without gaps. This has potential applications for
airports and runways of course as well as roads, rivers, streams, railroads,
or any other object where we might want to control the final elevation in
advance.
