The present embodiments relate to a method and device. The method comprises obtaining at least one first point from at least one point of a point cloud by projecting said point of the point cloud onto a projection plane and obtaining at least one other point of the point cloud determined according to said at least one first point; determining and encoding at least one interpolation coding mode for said at least one first point based on at least one reconstructed point obtained from said at least one first point and at least one interpolation point defined by said at least one interpolation coding mode to approximate said at least one other point of the point cloud; and signaling said at least interpolation coding mode as values of image data.
