Summary: A new discrete 3D polygon called Supercover Polygon is introduced. The polygon is a tunnel free plane segment defined by vertices and edges. An edge is a 3D line segment. Two different polygons can share a common edge and if they do, the union of both polygons is tunnel free. This is definition of discrete polygons that has the “most” properties in common with the continuous polygon. It seems particularly interesting for modelization of discrete scenes by way of digitization.
