The ''pixel resolution'' of a bitmap image is the number of pixels in both dimensions: width and height. It is typically expressed as, for instance, 640x480: this means a width of 640 pixels and a height of 480 pixels.

This is not to be mistaken with ''spatial resolution'' a.k.a. ''definition'' a.k.a. ''dot density'' which measures how close are the pixels in a realization of a bitmap, either in print or on a screen. Typically a laser printer's definition is at least 300 dots per inch.

In this wiki, ''resolution'' refers to pixel resolution.

See [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_resolution| the corresponding article] on Wikipedia (December 2014) for more information about these notions of resolution and other variants.
