Provided are a method and apparatus for encoding or decoding a 360-degree image. An image decoding method and apparatus according to an embodiment include: obtaining image data from a bitstream; decoding a first region of a projection image corresponding to a non-clipping region of a 360-degree image from the image data; obtaining information about a clipping region of the 360-degree image from the bitstream; determining a second region of the projection image, based on the information about the clipping region; and converting the projection image including the first region and the second region into the 360-degree image.

Method and apparatus for encoding or decoding 360 degree image

Provided are a method and apparatus for encoding or decoding a 360-degree image. According to an image decoding method and apparatus according to an embodiment, an original 360-degree image is reconstructed by acquiring image data from a bitstream, decoding a projection image of a 360-degree image from the image data, converting the projection image into the 360-degree image, acquiring rotation information of the 360-degree image from the bitstream, and rotating the 360-degree image based on the rotation information.

Method and apparatus for encoding and decoding 360-degree image

Provided is an image processing method including: generating an omnidirectional spherical image; determining information regarding a director's view that indicates some regions of the omnidirectional spherical image; generating a projection image by projecting the omnidirectional spherical image to a development view of a polyhedron; dividing, from the projection image, a director's view projection image corresponding to the director's view, based on the information regarding the director's view; reshaping the director's view projection image into a director's view rectangular image by moving a location of at least one of pixels of the director's view projection image; and generating a bitstream which the director's view rectangular image is encoded into.
