VkImage(3) Manual Page

Images represent multidimensional - up to 3 - arrays of data which can be used for various purposes (e.g. attachments, textures), by binding them to a graphics or compute pipeline via descriptor sets, or by directly specifying them as parameters to certain commands.

Images are represented by VkImage handles:

VkBindImageMemoryInfo, VkDedicatedAllocationMemoryAllocateInfoNV, VkImageMemoryBarrier, VkImageMemoryRequirementsInfo2, VkImageSparseMemoryRequirementsInfo2, VkImageViewCreateInfo, VkMemoryDedicatedAllocateInfo, VkSparseImageMemoryBindInfo, VkSparseImageOpaqueMemoryBindInfo, vkBindImageMemory, vkCmdBlitImage, vkCmdClearColorImage, vkCmdClearDepthStencilImage, vkCmdCopyBufferToImage, vkCmdCopyImage, vkCmdCopyImageToBuffer, vkCmdResolveImage, vkCreateImage, vkDestroyImage, vkGetImageDrmFormatModifierPropertiesEXT, vkGetImageMemoryRequirements, vkGetImageSparseMemoryRequirements, vkGetImageSubresourceLayout, vkGetSwapchainImagesKHR
