If we plot two tessellations on the same <strong>spatial</strong> doma<strong>in</strong>, what we see is another tessellation.<br />

The “<strong>in</strong>tersection” (or “overlay” or “common ref<strong>in</strong>ement”) of two tessellations X and Y is the<br />

tessellation whose tiles are the <strong>in</strong>tersections between tiles of X and tiles of Y. The command<br />

<strong>in</strong>tersect.tess computes the <strong>in</strong>tersection of two tessellations.<br />
