First step, the terrain data is triangulated by using Delaunay triangulation. Then partial derivative will be estimated at the data points. Sufficient condition for C1 continuity will be derived for each triangle. Finally, a convex combination comprising three rational local scheme is used to construct the surface. The scheme is tested to visualize the terrain data collected at central region of Malaysia. © 2018 The Authors, published by EDP Sciences. %Z cited By 8; Conference of 2018 UTP-UMP-VIT Symposium on Energy Systems, SES 2018 ; Conference Date: 18 September 2018 Through 19 September 2018; Conference Code:141921
