Abstract
The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and method that enable linking between a 3D spatial region and an atlas tile group. Link information is generated and signaled, in which the link information is stored in a file together with a bitstream of a point cloud expressing an object having a three-dimensional shape as a set of points, and the link information links a 3D spatial region of the point cloud with an atlas tile group. On the basis of the link information, the 3D spatial region and the atlas tile group that correspond to a desired three-dimensional space are selected. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an image processing apparatus, an information processing apparatus, an image processing method, an information processing method, or the like.
