Claims6
A method of decoding, the method comprising:
- decoding geometry information for point cloud data;
- and
- decoding attribute information for the point cloud data based on signaling information,
- wherein decoding the geometry information comprises:
- entropy decoding the geometry information,
- wherein decoding the attribute information comprises:
- generating LoDs (Levels of Detail) based on an octree structure, and
- de-compressing the attribute information based on the LoDs,
- wherein the octree structure is formed of depths,
- wherein each of the depths includes a plurality of nodes,
- wherein each of the plurality of nodes is an occupied node that includes one or more points or an unoccupied node that does not include any point,
- wherein, based on an occupied node belonging to a LoD of the LoDs including two or more occupied child nodes, a first node of the two or more occupied child nodes is selected for an attribute value of the occupied node,
- wherein a higher LoD of the LoDs includes points that belong to a lower LoD of the LoDs and includes points that do not belong to the lower LoD,
- wherein each LoD includes points of at least one depth of the octree structure, and
- wherein the signaling information includes information related to a number of the LoDs.

A method of encoding, the method comprising:
- encoding geometry information included in point cloud data;
- and
- encoding attribute information included in the point cloud data,
- wherein encoding the geometry information comprises:
