Abstract
A geometric model comparator is provided, which includes processing circuitry, memory, and comparison circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to generate a target model from a source model. The memory is configured to store the source model and the target model. The comparison circuitry is configured to identify selected points from the source model, create corresponding selected points in a target model, and compare the selected points from the source model with the selected points from the target model to identify one or more selected points from the target model that fall outside of a predetermined tolerance range with the respective one or more points from the source model. A method is also provided.
