    Normal mapping. Normal mapping used to re-detail simplified meshes. Normal map (a) is baked from 78,642 triangle model (b) onto 768 triangle model (c). This results in a render of the 768 triangle model, (d). In 3D computer graphics, normal mapping, or Dot3 bump mapping, is a texture mapping technique used for faking the lighting of bumps and ...

    A texture map[ 5 ][ 6 ] is an image applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape or polygon. [ 7 ] This may be a bitmap image or a procedural texture. They may be stored in common image file formats, referenced by 3D model formats or material definitions, and assembled into resource bundles.

    World map. A world map is a map of most or all of the surface of Earth. World maps, because of their scale, must deal with the problem of projection. Maps rendered in two dimensions by necessity distort the display of the three-dimensional surface of the Earth. While this is true of any map, these distortions reach extremes in a world map.

    Texture mapping Texture mapping is a method for adding detail, surface texture, or colour to a computer-generated graphic or 3D model. Its application to 3D graphics was pioneered by Edwin Catmull in 1974. A texture map is applied (mapped) to the surface of a shape, or polygon. This process is akin to applying patterned paper to a plain white box.

    This template provides a standardised colour/Color pallete for use with OSM Location Maps. The following color descriptors (not following any particular external precedent) can be used within OSM maps to provide a consistent and sympathetic color scheme for text labels and shape colors, using pastel shades that fit well alongside the existing map colors:-

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Figure-ground_(cartography)

    Figure-ground contrast, in the context of map design, is a property of a map in which the map image can be partitioned into a single feature or type of feature that is considered as an object of attention (the figure ), with the remainder of the map being relegated to the background, outside the current focus of attention.
