Image Sampling and Quantization

This document discusses image sampling and quantization techniques for representing digital images. It explains that sampling digitizes spatial coordinates while quantization digitizes amplitude values. It also discusses deciding on spatial and gray-level resolution based on an image's detail level to avoid aliasing and moiré patterns, and how zooming and shrinking can affect digital images.
