Tutorial: line and surface fusion

Issued: 21st May 2009. Revised for V2.0, 7th October 2009.
Summary: An Eonfusion dataflow that reads a list of (X,Y,time) points from a tabular text data source and converts them into a line. 3D surface (X,Y,Z) data is also loaded and turned into a surface by triangulation. The line and surface are then "fused" together via an intersection operation. The fusion enables the height attribute to be transferred from the 3D surface to the 2D line, resulting in a line with height information. This process can also be thought of as "draping" the line over the surface.
This tutorial will be useful to help you better understand the following aspects of Eonfusion:
tabular text data source
metadata
linearization
triangulation
fusion
intersection
copying attributes from one data set to another
line visualizers
surface visualizers
