mne.read_surface(fname, read_metadata=False, verbose=None)¶

Load a Freesurfer surface mesh in triangular format

Parameters:

fname : str The name of the file containing the surface. read_metadata : bool Read metadata as key-value pairs. Valid keys: ‘head’ : array of int ‘valid’ : str ‘filename’ : str ‘volume’ : array of int, shape (3,) ‘voxelsize’ : array of float, shape (3,) ‘xras’ : array of float, shape (3,) ‘yras’ : array of float, shape (3,) ‘zras’ : array of float, shape (3,) ‘cras’ : array of float, shape (3,) New in version 0.13.0. verbose : bool, str, int, or None If not None, override default verbose level (see mne.verbose).

Returns:

rr : array, shape=(n_vertices, 3) Coordinate points. tris : int array, shape=(n_faces, 3) Triangulation (each line contains indices for three points which together form a face). volume_info : dict-like If read_metadata is true, key-value pairs found in the geometry file.
