A three-dimensional data processing and recognizing method including scanning and re-constructing objects to be detected so as to obtain three-dimensional data for recognition of the objects to be detected; extracting data matching to features from the three-dimensional data, so that the extracted data constitutes an interested target; with respect to the data matching to features, merging and classifying adjacent data points as one group, to form an image of the merged interested target; recognizing a cross section of the interested target; cutting the interested targets by a perpendicular plane which passes through a central point of the cross section and is perpendicular to it, in order to obtain a graph; and recognizing shape of the interested targets based on a property of the graph.
