map room
Navigator's planning space
A map room is a dedicated space where maps are stored, displayed, or consulted for planning purposes.
The term evokes military or governmental settings where strategists gather around large maps to coordinate operations: Churchill spent long hours in the underground map room during the Blitz.
More broadly, any room housing a collection of maps for reference or study.
