Such a patch is constructed to faithfully extend the shape and the geometric features of the dataset. To this end, a mesh of curves gathering the information about the shape of the dataset will be considered and extended to the interior of the hole. Next, a (unique) patch fitting such a mesh of curves will be computed. Several numerical and graphical examples showing the effectiveness of the proposed method are provided %K Powell-Sabin finite element %K missing data %K surface reconstruction %K energy functional %K shape-preserving %K B ́ezier curves %~ Universidad de Cádiz
