Abstract

We extend the open leaf venation model by Runions et al. [RFL*05] to three dimensions and show that it generates surprisingly realistic tree structures. Model parameters correspond to visually relevant tree characteristics identified in landscaping, offering convenient control of tree shape and structure.
