Raster and vector are two ways an image can be constructed digitally. Raster images are more commonly used and are made up of pixels. We traditionally use pixel images when we take photos or create web graphics. One downside to pixels is, of course, pixelation. As you zoom into an image, it blurs.
So if you want to create large format printed media such as a billboard, a raster image can make your final product blurry. When printing raster images, RAW file formats usually offer the best resolution. These files are huge but produce a high-quality image for subsequent printing. Vector images, on the other hand, are created using geometric shapes. This means that you can enlarge them to pretty much any size, without losing any sharpness, clarity or detail.
