geographic map

Land feature diagram

A geographic map is a visual representation of an area showing physical features, boundaries, or other spatial information.

The term is sometimes used to distinguish maps of terrain and location from other types—road maps, political maps, or figurative "maps" of ideas.

Most often, simply map suffices.
