  Subdivision & Mergers
Subdivision is defined as the division of a lot, tract, or parcel of land into 2 or more lots, plats, sites, or other divisions of land for the purpose, whether immediate or future, of sale, rent, lease, condominium conveyance or building development.
The current subdivision regulations have been revised to be consistent with RSA 674:36.
Among other factors, the Planning Board has authority to provide against scattered or premature subdivision of land, provide for harmonious development, provide for proper arrangement and coordination of streets, and regulate that land shall be of such character that it can be used for building purposes without danger to health.

 Gamasutra - Features - "Subdivision Surface Theory" [04.11.00]
Subdivision surfaces are a way to describe a surface using a polygonal model.
Subdivision surface schemes allow you to take the original polygonal model and produce an approximation of the surface by adding vertices and subdividing existing polygons.
The point of using a subdivision model is that you have that ideal limit surface at which you can always throw more and more polygons as you get closer and closer to, no matter how high the display resolution or how close the model is to the screen.

 2000 SIGGRAPH Full Day Course: Subdivision for Modeling and Animation
Subdivision is an algorithmic technique to generate smooth surfaces as a sequence of successively refined polyhedral meshes.
Subdivision can model smooth surfaces, but in many applications one is interested in surfaces which carry details at many levels of resolution.
Every combined subdivision scheme consists of an ordinary subdivision scheme that operates in the interior of the mesh, and special rules that operate near tagged edges of the mesh and take into consideration the given boundary conditions.

 Gamasutra - Features - "Building Your Own Subdivision Surfaces" [09.08.00]
In recent years, subdivision surfaces have received a lot of attention from both academics and industry professionals, people in the movie industry even apply subdivision techniques to create complex characters and produce highly detailed, smooth animation.
Secondly, subdivision surfaces are constructed easily through recursive splitting and averaging: splitting involves creating four new faces by removing one old face, averaging involves taking a weighted average of neighboring vertices for the new vertices.
The goal is to obtain a subdivision connectivity mesh (through subdividing the base domain) and at the same time approximate the original mesh.

Subdivision is the process of subdividing something, usually land, into smaller pieces.
Subdivision is the act of dividing up land into smaller pieces that are easier to sell, usually via a plat.
Subnational entity is a generic term for an administrative region within a country — on an arbitrary level below that of the sovereign state — typically with a local government encompassing multiple municipalities, counties, or provinces with a certain degree of autonomy in a varying number of matters.

 NYU Media Research Lab | Projects | Subdivision | Schemes
Classic subdivision schemes (Catmull-Clark, Doo-Sabin, Loop) are based on low-degree spline subdivision and use simple rules to refine the meshes: either each face is split into four, or each vertex is split into four.
Subdivision algorithms need not be restricted to the spline-based schemes or to simple vertex or face split refinement.
Subdivision rules for uniform splines of any order can be constructed using well-known Lane-Riesenfield algorithm: replicate each control point and apply averaging n times.

Linear subdivision consists of putting new vertices on the edges of the face as well as in the center of the face and connecting them to form four new quads.

 3D Software - Subdivision Surfaces, Technology & Research at Intel   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Using a single surface mesh, as opposed to other popular approximating subdivision methods that require a surface mesh and a control mesh to define the surface, the Intel subdivision technology algorithms process all of the points of the base mesh as well as the points yielded by the subdivision.
Subdivision Surface technology can be used by a 3D software application to subdivide a base mesh either uniformly or adaptively to produce a mesh of a higher resolution.
Subdivision technology does consume runtime processing and memory resources to support adaptive subdivision; however, a good metric can ensure that the resource usage is balanced with improved rendering performance.
