Abstract

A system for crawling, indexing and searching three-dimensional data on the Web in the framework of MPEG-7 is presented. After a brief presentation of the Web context, considerations on three-dimensional data are introduced followed by an overview of the MPEG-7 standard. A strategy to efficiently crawl three-dimensional data is presented. Methods designed to automatically index three-dimensional objects are introduced as well as the corresponding search engine. The implications of MPEG-7 for such a system are then analyzed from both the normative and non-normative point of view.
