bit map
Dot-based image
A bit map is a digital image stored as a grid of pixels, where each pixel's color or shade is represented by bits of data.
The term often appears as bitmap or bitmapped: bitmap graphics, a bitmapped font.
Bit maps contrast with vector graphics, which store images as mathematical descriptions of shapes rather than pixel-by-pixel data.
