Rastriformaadid
Rastriformaadid, often translated as raster formats, are a way of representing digital images. These formats store image data as a grid of tiny colored squares called pixels. Each pixel has a specific color value, and the arrangement of these pixels creates the overall image. Common examples of raster formats include JPEG, PNG, GIF, and BMP. JPEG is widely used for photographs due to its ability to compress images effectively, although this compression can lead to some loss of detail. PNG is favored for graphics and images requiring transparency, as it supports lossless compression. GIF is known for its animation capabilities and limited color palette, making it suitable for simple animations and web graphics. BMP is a less compressed format that generally results in larger file sizes. When working with raster images, it's important to consider their resolution, which refers to the number of pixels per inch. Higher resolution generally means more detail but also larger file sizes. Resizing raster images, especially increasing their size, can lead to a loss of quality as the software interpolates pixel data.
