As to the problem of surface reconstruction in 3D laser scanner, we propose a divide-and-conquer based method, and realize the continuing growth of the reconstructed surface through comprehensive analysis of the correlations of scanning line point cloud data. First of all, filter the scanning line point cloud data, then confirm the relationship between the newly-insert point and the generated surface by using the local search algorithm based on adaptive point cloud segmentation, and finally, classify the newly-inserted points as sparse points, density points, growth points and flyback points by using the given maximum and minimum distance thresholds, and then the specific surface reconstruction is performed according to the point’s classification. The experimental results show that the local search algorithm greatly reduces the calculation of the insert location of the point cloud compared with the global traversal search algorithm; the proposed method can process the flyback points, enhancing the repairability and the expandability of the reconstructed 3D surface compared with the traditional method. Furthermore, the quality of the reconstructed 3D surface, the generating speed and the occupation of storage space can all be controlled by adjusting the maximum and minimum distance thresholds according to actual demand.
