A method and apparatus for encoding multi-view video data and a method and apparatus for
decoding multi-view video data are provided. The method of encoding multi-view video data
includes obtaining a multi-view color video frame and a depth map frame corresponding to
the multi-view color video frame, prediction-encoding the multi-view color video frame, and
prediction-encoding the depth map frame, based on a result of prediction-encoding the multi-
view color video frame.
