the spatial decomposition of a map, one cell per site: the vertices V, the vertex pair F and the site pair of every face, the sites and the lattice

Input

V planar vertex coordinates
F pairs of vertex indices describing faces between cells
cells pairs of adjacent site indices for every face
sites measurement sites represented by the cells
A lattice basis
plane mapPlane of the geometry
shape cell or map shape metadata

Members

nSites the number of sites, the measurements, the holes and the outer rings
site2pixel the measurement of every site, NO_PIXEL where it has none, and the index of every site
siteAt the site whose cell covers a point: its nearest site, since a cell is the set of points nearer to its site than to any other, searched over the lattice cells around the point
siteIJ the lattice indices of the sites
unitCell2d the corners of one lattice cell in the plane’s coordinates
