Abstract
Disclosed is a method for processing a three-dimensional (3D) image. The method comprises the steps of: projecting a 3D image into a two-dimensional (2D) image; producing a packed 2D image by packing a plurality of areas configuring the 2D image; generating encoded data by encoding the packed 2D image; and transmitting the encoded data.
