Does anybody know if there is an extension of run-length encoding to volumetric 3d data?

- ginko 13y agoVolumetric data is usually compressed using sparse voxel octrees.
- jared314 13y agoYou could use a lossless video codec to achieve the desired effect.
- milliams 13y agoIn PolyVox (http://www.volumesoffun.com/polyvox-about/ http://www.volumesoffun.com/polyvox-about/) we provide RLE as one of the options for compressing volumes. In future versions we will also have deflate-type compression as an option. RLE is very good for 'Minecraft-style' volumes where there are few voxel values and large contiguous areas. For the mandelbulb (and medical scan output) it will be less effective since the raw data is smoothly varying
