Abstract: Disclosed are a method for compression, decompression and progressive transmission of spatial data and a device thereof. A compression method for spatial data comprises: according to a preset view control parameter, acquiring a compression parameter Z; according to the view control parameter, determining a reference point P; according to the compression parameter Z, converting the coordinate values of the coordinate points of the spatial data and the coordinate value of the reference point P into integers; and using the differences of the values resulting from conversion of the coordinate values of the coordinate points of the spatial data into the integers and the values resulting from conversion of the coordinate values of the reference point P into integers as compressed data. Also disclosed are a method for determining the maximum data bit for storing spatial data, a method for inserting incremental data, a method for compressing and decompressing incremental data and a device thereof.
