fold-out map
Glove compartment navigator
A fold-out map is a map printed on paper that folds into a compact size for storage but unfolds to reveal a larger area.
Common in travel guides, atlases, and glove compartments, fold-out maps allow detailed cartography without requiring a large format: The guidebook included a fold-out map of the subway system.
The repeated folding and unfolding eventually wears the creases thin.
