Abstract
A three-dimensional data encoding method includes: generating first information in which an N-ary tree structure of a plurality of three-dimensional points included in three-dimensional data is expressed using a first formula, where N is an integer of 2 or higher; and generating a bitstream including the first information. The first information includes pieces of three-dimensional point information each associated with a corresponding one of the plurality of three-dimensional points. The pieces of three-dimensional point information each include indexes each associated with a corresponding one of a plurality of levels in the N-ary tree structure. The indexes each indicate a subblock, among N subblocks belonging to a corresponding one of the plurality of levels, to which a corresponding one of the plurality of three-dimensional points belongs.
