In one to two sentences, explain the difference between raster data and vector data.

Raster data is made up of pixels and represents continuous data, while vector data is made up of points, lines, and polygons, and represents discrete data.

Raster data represents images or spatial data as a grid of pixels, where each pixel carries a color or intensity value, while vector data represents spatial information as a series of geometrical shapes like points, lines, and polygons, with properties attached to them.
