Difference between Depth map and Z-buffering

Depth map vs. Z-buffering

In 3D computer graphics a depth map is an image or image channel that contains information relating to the distance of the surfaces of scene objects from a viewpoint. In computer graphics, z-buffering, also known as depth buffering, is the management of image depth coordinates in 3D graphics, usually done in hardware, sometimes in software.

Similarities between Depth map and Z-buffering

Depth map and Z-buffering have 2 things in common (in Unionpedia): Painter's algorithm, Shadow mapping.

Painter's algorithm

The painter's algorithm, also known as a priority fill, is one of the simplest solutions to the visibility problem in 3D computer graphics.
