"A raster captures a continuous phenomenon into a ***regular [tessellation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tessellation)*** of space. Within each tile or cell of the raster the value of the phenomenon or variable of concern is constant. The location and size of each cell is perfectly known since the tessellation is regular. This process of collecting a continuous variable into a raster is sometimes referred to as ***discretisation***.\n",
