Abstract
An information processing apparatus, information processing method, reproduction processing apparatus, and reproduction processing method, capable of providing a viewing experience that meets the viewer's requests. An encoding unit encodes point cloud data in such a way as to have a phased hierarchical structure corresponding to a level of detail (LoD) indicating a level of quality to generate a bitstream being constituted of a data region including one or more geometry slices. A metadata generation unit generates partial slice-specific information being used for specifying a correspondence of the LoD to a partial slice used as a partial region corresponding to the LoD in the geometry slice. A file creation unit creates a file including the partial slice-specific information.
