What type of map might include landmarks such as schools and parks?

A vicinity map is specifically designed to provide a broader overview of an area, showcasing important landmarks, roads, and significant features like schools, parks, hospitals, and other local amenities. The purpose of a vicinity map is to give residents or visitors a sense of orientation within the surrounding area. It emphasizes key locations and their relationships to each other, facilitating navigation and an understanding of the community layout.

In contrast, a topographic map focuses on the physical features of the land, such as elevation changes and terrain contour lines, rather than specific landmarks. A cadastral map primarily deals with land boundaries and property lines, often used for legal purposes related to land ownership and property taxation. A satellite map provides a photographic representation of the Earth’s surface and might show features as they appear from above, but it is not specifically tailored for identifying local landmarks in the same way a vicinity map is.
