Raster vs. vector images – what's the difference?

What is a vector image?

A vector image or graphic is a type of image defined on a plane, connected by lines and curves. They form shapes based on mathematical equations. And because of this, if you zoom in or out, the lines, curves, or points always remain smooth.

What is a raster image?

A raster image is a term in computer graphics and digital photography. A raster, also called a bitmap image, represents a rectangular grid of pixels. 

They are viewable using a bitmapped display or another medium.
