[[X3D]] (Extensible 3D) is an interactive 3D vector graphics format. It is the successor to [[VRML]]. It is usually encoded in [[XML]], though there is also a standard "Classic VRML" encoding.

X3D is standardized in ISO/IEC 19775 (X3D), ISO/IEC 19776 (X3D encodings), and ISO/IEC 19777 (X3D language bindings).

== Identification ==
Assuming uncompressed XML encoding, an X3D file has a line beginning with "<code><!DOCTYPE X3D PUBLIC</code>", followed by an "<code><X3D></code>" XML element.

Classic VRML-encoded X3D files begin with text similar to "<code>#X3D V3.1 utf8</code>".

 === Compressed binary ===
-A file using X3D's ''compressed binary encoding'' uses extension '''.x3db''', and MIME type '''model/x3d+binary'''. The file may be gzip-compressed (even though the encoding name may suggest it is already compressed), and use extension '''.x3db.gz'''. The alternate extension '''.x3dbz''' seems consistent, but is not mentioned in the specification.
