LiDAR Scene Descriptors are a Data Type including the LiDAR Objects of a scene, their Sub-Scenes, and their arrangement in the Scene. LiDAR Scene Descriptors may be hierarchical, i.e., they may contain Objects and LiDAR Scene Descriptors.
2 Functional Requirements
A LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance must include:
- The LiDAR Scene Descriptors Header.
- The ID of the LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance.
- The Space/Time of the LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance.
A LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance may include:
- The ID of a Virtual Space (M-Instance) where it is or is intended to be located.
- The ID of a U-Environment (Real Space) where it is or is intended to be located.
- Time when this instance was produced.
- LiDAR Objects in the LiDAR Scene, each with their Space/Time.
- LiDAR Sub-Scenes in the LiDAR Scene, each with their Space/Time.
- A mixed array of Basic LiDAR Scene Descriptors and LiDAR Scene Descriptors.
- MPAI-PTF Data Exchange Metadata.
- Descriptive Metadata.

4 Semantics
| Header | LiDAR Scene Descriptors Header – Standard “OSD‑LSD‑Vx.y”. |
| MInstanceID | Identifier of the M-Instance (Virtual Space) where this LiDAR Scene is or is intended to be located. |
| UEnvironmentID | Identifier of the U-Environment (Real Space) where this LiDAR Scene is or is intended to be located. |
| LiDARSceneDescriptorsID | Unique identifier of this LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance. |
| LiDARSceneDescriptorsTime | Time this LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance was produced. |
| LiDARSceneDescriptorsSpaceTime | Space/Time where/when this LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance is located. |
| LiDARObjectCount | Number of LiDAR Objects in the LiDAR Scene. |
| LiDARObjects[] | Set of LiDAR Objects in the LiDAR Scene. |
| – LiDARObjectSpaceTime | Space/Time where/when this LiDAR Object is located within the LiDAR Scene. |
| – ObjectIDOrObject | Either the ID of a LiDAR Object or the LiDAR Object itself. |
| SubLiDARSceneCount | Number of LiDAR Sub-Scenes in the LiDAR Scene. |
| SubLiDARScenes[] | Set of LiDAR Sub-Scenes in the LiDAR Scene. |
| – SubLiDARSceneSpaceTime | Space/Time where/when this LiDAR Sub-Scene is located within the LiDAR Scene. |
| – SubLiDARSceneIDOrSubLiDARScene | Either the ID of a LiDAR Sub-Scene or the LiDAR Sub-Scene itself. |
| BasicLiDARSceneOrLiDARScene | A mixed array of Basic LiDAR Scene Descriptors and LiDAR Scene Descriptors. |
| DataXMData | MPAI-PTF Data Exchange Metadata providing provenance, authorisation, legal, security, and confidence information associated with this LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance in a trusted data exchange context. |
| DescrMetadata | Human-readable descriptive metadata of the LiDAR Scene Descriptors instance (plain text, max 2048 characters). |
5 Conformance Testing
A Data instance conforms with LiDAR Scene Descriptors (OSD‑LSD) if:
- The Data validates against the LiDAR Scene Descriptors’ JSON Schema.
- All Data in the LiDAR Scene Descriptors’ JSON Schema:
- Have the specified type.
- Validate against their JSON Schemas.
- Conform with their Data Qualifiers.
