// .NAME vtkMarchingSquares - generate isoline(s) from structured points set
// .SECTION Description
// vtkMarchingSquares is a filter that takes as input a structured points set
// and generates on output one or more isolines.  One or more contour values 
// must be specified to generate the isolines.  Alternatively, you can specify 
// a min/max scalar range and the number of contours to generate a series of 
// evenly spaced contour values. 
//
// To generate contour lines the input data must be of topological dimension 2 
// (i.e., an image). If not, you can use the ImageRange ivar to select an
// image plane from an input volume. This avoids having to extract a plane first
// (using vtkExtractSubVolume).  The filter deals with this by first
// trying to use the input data directly, and if not a 2D image, then uses the 
// ImageRange ivar to reduce it to an image.

// .SECTION Caveats
// This filter is specialized to images. If you are interested in 
// contouring other types of data, use the general vtkContourFilter.
