Abstract

In this paper we propose to treat point clouds as a first-class representation (similar to vector or raster representations), with the nD-PointCloud as the solution for this, offering deep integration of space, time and scale. For efficiency rea-sons spatial indexing and clustering of these large point clouds is extremely important and this is obtained based on a Space Filling Curved (SFC). In order to get beyond the current state of the art of storing/ managing point clouds in files, a DBMS solution is presented (with all benefits: integration with other data types, scalability, multi-user, transaction support, etc.). Finally, a DBMS SFC interface specification for point clouds is proposed.
