1. A method for transferring information, the method comprising:
copying information from three channels of a first three-channel texture image into first, second, and third channels of a four-channel image, wherein the first three-channel texture image represents a texture of a point cloud;
storing combined information in a fourth channel of the four-channel image, wherein the combined information includes a combination of at least two image-structured data for reconstructing a geometry of the point cloud; and
transferring the four-channel image.
