dc.description.abstract-translatedThe issue of point location is an important problem in computer graphics and the study of e cient data structures and fast algorithms is an important research area for both computer graphics and computational geometry disciplines. When filling the interior region of a planar polygon in computer graphics, it is necessary to identify all points that lie within the interior region and those that are outside. Sutherland and Hodgman are credited for designing the first algorithm to solve the problem. Their approach utilizes vector construction and vector cross products, and forms the basis of the "odd parity" rule. To verify whether a test point is within or outside a given planar polygon, a ray from the test point is drawn extending to infinity in any direction without intersecting a vertex. If the ray intersects the polygon outline an odd number of times, the region is considered interior. Otherwise, the point is outside the region. In dimensional space, Lee and Preparata propose an algorithm but their approach is limited to point location relative to convex polyhedrons with vertices in 3D-space. Although it is rich on optimal data structures to reduce the storage requirement and efficient algorithms for fast execution, a proof of correctness of the algorithm, applied to the general problem of point location relative to any arbitrary surface in 3D-space, is absent in the literature. This paper argues that the electromagnetic field theory and Gauss´s Law constitute a fundamental basis for the "odd parity" rule and shows that the "odd parity" rule may be correctly extended to point location relative to any arbitrary closed surface in 3D-space.en
