Raster resolution represents the length of one side of a cell. It is usually measured in meters or feet. A higher resolution means smaller cell size, and therefore more detailed analysis can be performed. The size of the study area and the area size of a cell are not used to represent raster resolution. The ratio of the area size of a cell and the size of the study area is also not used to represent raster resolution.
