i have an irregular point cloud and want to creat a DEM. i tried this with griddata. however, griddata interpolates also in between gaps.
is it possible to create a surface grid with the option to interpolate just within a certain distance. - i tried point2cloud which does this, but results in a triangular net.
in the figure below i tried to clarify the problem. i have the point cloud (blue circles) and the interpolated surface.
