Scan planes intersections are obtained by means of a proposed generalisation of Porter’s algorithm. 2-D scan plane primitives are decomposed in a way that provides a more accurate disjointness information then 3-D inclosing boxes and a simple way to class spans. Furtheremore, this scan plane organisation allows the use of most of scan line hidden surface strategies that make use of different types of coherence to speed up the visibility process.A New Scan Line Algorithm for the Rendering of CGS Trees10.2312/egtp.19871027
