A system comprises an encoder configured to compress attribute and/or spatial information for a point cloud and/or a decoder configured to decompress compressed attribute and/or spatial information for the point cloud. To compress the attribute and/or spatial information, the encoder is configured to convert a point cloud into an image based representation. Also, the decoder is configured to generate a decompressed point cloud based on an image based representation of a point cloud. In some embodiments, an encoder generates time-consistent patches for multiple version of the point cloud at multiple moments in time and uses the time-consistent patches to generate image based representations of the point cloud at the multiple moments in time.
