Abstract
A method of encoding or decoding a point cloud for representing a three-dimensional location of an object, the point cloud being generated by a device comprising a plurality of beam emitters. The method comprises using information from the beam emitter such as the angle of each beam emitter, and the azimuthal distance between each point capture, to more efficiently represent the point cloud data.
