Raster Images: Raster images are digital graphics made up of pixels arranged in a grid-like pattern, where each pixel represents a specific color value. They are commonly used for photographs and detailed visuals.
Vector Images: Vector images use mathematical equations rather than pixels to represent graphics. They are composed of lines, curves, and shapes defined by their geometric properties. Vector images can be scaled without losing quality.
Image Compression: Image compression is a specific type of data compression that focuses on reducing the size of image files while preserving visual quality. Different algorithms and techniques are used to achieve this.
