===Mipmapping===
{{Main article|Mipmap}}

There is also an approach specialised for [[texture mapping]] called [[mipmap]]ping, which works by creating lower resolution, pre-filtered versions of the texture map. When rendering the image, the appropriate-resolution mipmap is chosen and hence the texture pixels (texels) are already filtered when they arrive on the screen. Mipmapping is generally combined with various forms of [[texture filtering]] in order to improve the final result.
