General reference maps :- This is a catch-all term for various small-scale maps, such as maps covering a continent, region, or country on a single sheet. General reference maps also include thematic maps (maps about a subject, which show such things as population and crop distribution).
Thematic maps:- A thematic map is a type of map specifically designed to show a particular theme connected with a specific geographic area, such as temperature variation, rainfall distribution or population density.
Topographic map:- Topography concerns the shape and character of the Earth's surface, and maps were among the first artifacts to record these observations. They are also known as topographical maps.
Cadastral maps:-A cadastre is a comprehensive land recording of the real estate or real property's metes-and-bounds of a country. In most countries, legal systems have developed around the original administrative systems and use the cadastre to define the dimensions and location of land parcels described in legal documentation.
Navigation maps:-The term “navigation map” represents the route instructions, as it were, throughout the conceptual model. The conceptual navigation map shows “routes” the user can or is required to take through the configuration to perform and conclude all the required steps for accomplishing a goal.
Series maps:- A map series is a group of topographic or thematic maps or charts usually having the same scale and cartographic specifications, and with each sheet appropriately identified by its publisher as belonging to the same series.
