Systems and methods are described for Distification of 3D imagery. A computing device may obtain a three dimensional (3D) image that includes rules defining a 3D point cloud used to generate a two dimensional (2D) image matrix. The 2D image matrix may include 2D matrix point(s) mapped to the 3D image, where each 2D matrix point can be associated with a horizontal coordinate and a vertical coordinate. The computing device can generate an output feature vector that includes, for at least one of the 2D matrix points, the horizontal coordinate and the vertical coordinate of the 2D matrix point, and a depth coordinate of a 3D point in the 3D point cloud of the 3D image. The 3D point can have a nearest horizontal and vertical coordinate pair that corresponds to the horizontal and vertical coordinates of the at least one 2D matrix point.
