Abstract
Un procédé de transmission de données de nuage de points selon des modes de réalisation peut comprendre les étapes consistant à : acquérir des données de nuage de points; coder des informations de géométrie des données de nuage de points; coder des informations d'attribut des données de nuage de points sur la base des informations de géométrie; et transmettre un train de bits comprenant les informations de géométrie codées, les informations d'attribut codées et les informations de signalisation.
