Class Documentation

class PointcloudEncoder

PointcloudEncoder is used to encode a point cloud into a compressed format.

The encoder uses two stages of compression:

1. First stage: applies lossy or lossless compression to the fields of the point cloud.

2. Second stage: applies general-purpose compression (LZ4 or ZSTD) to the entire point cloud data.

Public Functions

PointcloudEncoder(const EncodingInfo &info)

size_t encode(ConstBufferView cloud_data, std::vector<uint8_t> &output)

Encode the point cloud data into a compressed format.

Parameters:

• cloud_data – The input point cloud data to be encoded.

• output – The output buffer to store the compressed data. It will be resized to fit the encoded data.

Returns:

The size of the encoded data.
