A bilateral filter is a gaussian filter but pixels are additionally weighted by the gaussian of the intensity difference. Hence, edges are preserved since adjacent pixels which have significantly different intensity are weighted much less.

This can be used for upsampling lower resolution depth maps or tone maps using [https://johanneskopf.de/publications/jbu/paper/FinalPaper_0185.pdf joint bilateral upscaling]. E.g. if you have a low-resolution image, low-resolution depth, and a high-resolution reference, you can upscale the depth while keeping the edges from the high-resolution reference.
