NAME

       mia-meshdistance-to-stackmask  -  Evaluate  the  distance between a binary shape given as reference and a
       mesh.

SYNOPSIS

       mia-meshdistance-to-stackmask -i <in-mesh> -r <ref-mask> -o <out-mesh> [options]

DESCRIPTION

       mia-meshdistance-to-stackmask This program takes a binary masks  and  a  triangular  mesh  as  input  and
       evaluates the distance of the mesh vertices to the binary maskand stores the result in a new mesh.
