  2. Raster graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raster_graphics

    The size of each square pixel, known as the resolution or support, is constant across the grid. Raster or gridded data may be the result of a gridding procedure. A single numeric value is then stored for each pixel. For most images, this value is a visible color, but other measurements are possible, even numeric codes for qualitative categories.

  3. Digital image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_image

    A digital image is an image composed of picture elements, also known as pixels, each with finite, discrete quantities of numeric representation for its intensity or gray level that is an output from its two-dimensional functions fed as input by its spatial coordinates denoted with x, y on the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. [1]

  4. Pixel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel

    A megapixel (MP) is a million pixels; the term is used not only for the number of pixels in an image but also to express the number of image sensor elements of digital cameras or the number of display elements of digital displays. For example, a camera that makes a 2048 × 1536 pixel image (3,145,728 finished image pixels) typically uses a few ...

  5. PNG - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PNG

    Using PNG instead of a high-quality JPEG for such images would result in a large increase in file size with negligible gain in quality. In comparison, when storing images that contain text, line art, or graphics – images with sharp transitions and large areas of solid color – the PNG format can compress image data more than JPEG can.

    The number of bits per pixel, sample, or texel in a bitmap image (holding one or more image channels, typical values being 4, 8, 16, 24, 32) Bitmap Image stored by pixels. Bit plane A format for bitmap images storing 1 bit per pixel in a contiguous 2D array; Several such parallel arrays combine to produce the a higher-bit-depth image. Opposite ...

  7. Metadata - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metadata

    For example, a digital image may include metadata that describes the size of the image, its color depth, resolution, when it was created, the shutter speed, and other data. [16] A text document's metadata may contain information about how long the document is, who the author is, when the document was written, and a short summary of the document.

  8. Wikipedia : Featured picture criteria/Image size

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Image_size

    Under the image there should be a set of numbers in the form "NNNNxMMMM." This is the size of the image in pixels. If these numbers do not appear, then the image is smaller than the limit you specified for display in the "Files" pane in your preferences. If you did not adjust that limit, the default size is 800x600 pixels.

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Images

    Animated PNG images with a frame size larger than 12.5 million pixels cannot currently be displayed in thumbnail form in Wikipedia articles, a significantly lower limit than the GIF format, and is not fully supported on all browsers. A JPEG or other compressed image format can be much smaller than a comparable GIF or PNG format file. When there ...
