Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A method, apparatus, system, and computer program product for applying a color (202) to an aircraft (206). The color (202) for an exterior surface (220) of the aircraft (206) is determined by the computer system (212) from a design (216) of the aircraft (206). A position (222) of the color (202) in three-dimensional space is determined by the computer system (212). The position (222) is in a color space coordinate system (224). An inkjet printer (234) in the inkjet printers (228) with a point cloud (230) in the plurality of point clouds (238) having a smallest Euclidean distance (244) to the position (222) of the color (202) is selected by the computer system (212). The inkjet printer (234) is used to apply the color (202) on the exterior surface (220) of the aircraft (206).
