Abstract

Embodiments of the invention relate to a method for minimizing the influence of disturbing signals during calculation of shape elements from coordinate points. An aim of the embodiments of the invention is to exclude the coordinates which are not to be locally assigned to the desired shaped element from the calculation of the shaped element. This aim is achieved by combining compensation methods for calculating the desired type of shaped element with recognition methods for the same type of shaped element and using the recognition methods for filtering the coordinate points that are relevant for calculating the shaped element out of all input coordinate points.
