2d bitmap

are you just talking about texture mapping (give the 3d structure a "skin"), or using 2d info to re-construct a 3d structure (one topic in computer vision)?

nvm my previous question. in both case it should just be "2d bitmap data" or "2d bitmap info".
by the way, i know that a word-by-word translation would be "planar bitmap", but "planar" in "planar bitmap" actually describes the way pixel data in the file are organized (i.e., data are separated into planes), rather than the fact that the data the author of the essay has are 2d, which i think is what the author is trying to stress.
Note from asker:
Thank you for your explanation. I don't know the answer to your question. I would have to ask the client but I think it would take a few days before I get the answer. So I'm glad now I don't have to ask. I found the English word for 位图 was bitmap. And I thought of 2D bitmap for 平面位图, but wasn't sure. Now it's confirmed. Thank you very much.
