Spatial resolution

From Quire, the open reference·Spacing between measurements·1 min read

In physics and geosciences, the term spatial resolution refers to distance between independent measurements,[1] or the physical dimension that represents a pixel of the image. While in some instruments, like cameras and telescopes, spatial resolution is directly connected to angular resolution, other instruments, like synthetic aperture radar or a network of weather stations, produce data whose spatial sampling layout is more related to the Earth's surface, such as in remote sensing and satellite imagery.
