OK. Any voxel of open space will be zero, you will have a LOT of those.
Any voxel inside a closed surface can be set to zero, as there will be no way of 
recording nor vewing those.
Finaly, you are looking at absolutely huge compression capability, as long as 
you don't have to much non uniforn fog and smoke.
