road maps
Paper navigation sheets
Road maps are printed guides showing roads and highways for a region, used for navigating by car.
The singular road map extends to any plan laying out steps toward a goal: a road map for peace negotiations, a road map to financial independence.
The term has become somewhat dated as GPS navigation has largely replaced paper maps.
