To extract the shortest path between two points on a curved surface, different algorithms are implemented and compared. A color map visualizes the geodetic distances to a freely selected starting point on the surface of the model. The path to one or more selected points is extracted and the geometry data is made available for further use. [Source, 3D model, Stanford Bunny: Stanford University Computer Graphics Laboratory]
