Hello again Cyril,
For such an enormous dataset, I would strongly suggest you look into
parametric representation of your data, perhaps with wavlets.
See the papers of our Multires graphics group here at Caltech
<http://www.multires.caltech.edu/pubs/>. In particular, see
"Normal Mesh Compression" by Andrei Khodakovsky and Igor Guskov which was
much acclaimed at this year's SIGGRAPH.
If you are interested in pursuing this direction, I can put you in touch
with the proper people.
Best,
Joe Kiniry
