New method triangulates 3.7 million map polygons in 489 ms
Original: Faster than earcut: triangulating 3.7M map polygons in 489 ms
Engineers at Globus Software report a polygon triangulation method they say outperforms the widely used earcut library, processing 3.7 million map polygons in just 489 milliseconds. The write-up details the approach for fast geometry processing in mapping applications. Developers are discussing the benchmark results and what the speedup could mean for rendering large geospatial datasets.
Why now: The dramatic performance claim over earcut, a popular library, is drawing attention from developers working with geospatial rendering.
