Part 2 Classic VRML encoding
This document is part 2 of ISO/IEC 19776, Extensible 3D (X3D) encodings. The full title
of this part of the International Standard is: Information technology
— Computer graphics and image processing
— Extensible (X3D) encodings — Part
2: Classic VRML encoding.
The Foreword provides background on the standards process for
X3D encodings. The Introduction describes the purpose, design criteria, and
characteristics of X3D encodings. The following clauses define this part of ISO/IEC
19776:
- Scope defines the problem area that the Classic VRML
encoding of X3D addresses.
- Normative references lists the normative standards
referenced in this part of ISO/IEC 19776.
- Definitions contains the glossary of terminology used in
this part of ISO/IEC 19776.
- Concepts describes various fundamentals of the Classic VRML
encoding of X3D.
- Encoding of fields and events specifies the Classic VRML
encoding of data types used by X3D nodes.
- Encoding of nodes specifies the Classic VRML encoding of X3D
nodes.
- Conformance describes the conformance requirements for
implementations of the Classic VRML encoding.
There are several annexes included in the specification:
- Grammar definition presents the grammar for the X3D Classic
VRML file format.
- Examples includes a variety of Classic VRML encoded example
files.
Bibliography lists references which may have more
information.
