Abstract TheDelaunay diagram on a set of points in the plane, calledsites, is the straight-line dual graph of the Voronoi diagram. When no degeneracies are present, the Delaunay diagram is a triangulation of the sites, called theDelaunay triangulation. When degeneracies are present, edges must be added to the Delaunay diagram to obtain a Delaunay triangulation. In this paper we describe an optimalO(n logn) plane-sweep algorithm for computing a Delaunay triangulation on a possibly degenerate set of sites in the plane under theL 1 metric or theL ∞ metric.
