We consider the topological and geometric reconstruction of a geodesic subspace of [Formula: see text] both from the Äech and Vietoris-Rips filtrations on a finite, Hausdorff-close, Euclidean sample. Our reconstruction technique leverages the intrinsic length metric induced by the geodesics on the subspace. We consider the distortion and convexity radius as our sampling parameters for the reconstruction problem. For a geodesic subspace with finite distortion and positive convexity radius, we guarantee a correct computation of its homotopy and homology groups from the sample. This technique provides alternative sampling conditions to the existing and commonly used conditions based on weak feature size and [Formula: see text]âreach, and performs better under certain types of perturbations of the geodesic subspace. For geodesic subspaces of [Formula: see text], we also devise an algorithm to output a homotopy equivalent geometric complex that has a very small Hausdorff distance to the unknown underlying space.
