Voxel vs Voxmap - What's the difference?

voxel | voxmap |

In computer graphics|lang=en terms the difference between voxel and voxmap

is that voxel is (computer graphics) the three-dimensional analogue of a pixel; a volume element representing some numerical quantity, such as the colour, of a point in three-dimensional space, used in the visualisation and analysis of three-dimensional (especially scientific and medical) data while voxmap is (computer graphics) a three-dimensional array of voxels, analogous to a bitmap of pixels.
