Abstract
A three-dimensional data encoding method of encoding three-dimensional points each having an attribute information item includes: classifying each of the three-dimensional points into any of layers including a first layer and a second layer; and arithmetic-encoding an attribute information item of a current three-dimensional point among the three-dimensional points with reference to a first encoding table when the current three-dimensional point is at the first layer, and with reference to a second encoding table not dependent on the first encoding table when the current three-dimensional point is at the second layer.
