<h1 class='module'>Cubic Spline Approximation</h1>
<div class='author'>O. Conrad (c) 2008</div>
<div class='description'>This module approximates irregular scalar 2D data in specified points using C1-continuous bivariate cubic spline.<br/>
Minimal Number of Points: minimal number of points locally involved in spline calculation (normally = 3)<br/>
<br/>
Maximal Number of Points:npmax: maximal number of points locally involved in spline calculation (required > 10, recommended 20 < npmax < 60)<br/>
Tolerance: relative tolerance multiple in fitting spline coefficients: the higher this value, the higher degree of the locally fitted spline (recommended 80 < k < 200)<br/>
<br/>
Points per square: average number of points per square (increase if the point distribution is strongly non-uniform to get larger cells)<br/>
<br/>

Purpose: 2D data approximation with bivariate C1 cubic spline. A set of library functions + standalone utility.<br/>
