field map

Land area diagram

A field map is a map created or used during fieldwork—showing terrain, boundaries, or data collection points for researchers, surveyors, or agricultural workers.

In video games and software, a field map is the explorable overworld or main navigational screen, distinct from battle screens or menus: The field map lets you travel between towns.
