doolkit: Exploration of Dental Surface Topography
Tools for exploring the topography of 3d triangle meshes.
    The functions were developed with dental surfaces in mind, but could be 
    applied to any triangle mesh of class 'mesh3d'. More specifically, 'doolkit'
    allows to isolate the border of a mesh, or a subpart of the mesh using the 
    polygon networks method; crop a mesh; compute basic descriptors (elevation, 
    orientation, footprint area); compute slope, angularity and relief index
