Retaining only outer points

Hi,

I have projected all my points onto the xy plane, i am now trying to remove the points on the inside so i am left with only the perimeter points, does anyone know how this can be done ?

It may have been easier to keep them in 3D, but you can take the convex hull of the shape and extract the points from there.

The other option and this may be easier, would be to take the form from which the original points came, and extract all the edges which only boarder on face. Hard to say which is a better route without understanding the initial form though.

Thanks for the response the original geometry is a topo, im basically trying to get the edge curve of the topo

You have a topo, why not ask for the perimeter edges directly then?

Which Revit version?

Hi @TomD

you can use open3d python pak inside dynamo to detect the outer point
