|---|---|---|---|
| Description: Units_of_Pixel_Resolution_Map is a unit in which pixel resolution is measured in a cartographic context. Map pixel resolution indicates the size of a pixel in a digital map expressed in terms of surface distance per single pixel. This value is dependent on the definition of the map projection or radius to the object. (e.g., 6.5 m/pixel, 1.0 km/pixel) Note: In a cartographic context, degree is interpreted as a surface distance measured in degrees of latitude or longitude. | |||

| deg/pixel | deg/pixel is an abbreviation for degree per pixel, which is a unit of map pixel resolution (“deg” is interpreted as a surface distance measured in degrees of latitude or longitude). | ||
| km/pixel | km/pixel is an abbreviation for kilometer per pixel, which is a unit of map pixel resolution (1 km = 10**3 m = one thousand meters). | ||
| m/pixel | m/pixel is an abbreviation for meter per pixel, which is a unit of map pixel resolution (meter is an SI base unit of length). | ||
| mm/pixel | mm/pixel is an abbreviation for millimeter per pixel, which is a unit of map pixel resolution (10**3 mm = one thousand millimeters = 1 meter). | ||
