"The various features shown on a map are represented by conventional signs or symbols. For example, colors can be used to indicate a classification of roads. Those signs are usually explained in the margin of the map, or on a separately published characteristic sheet.
Some cartographers prefer to make the map cover practically the entire screen or sheet of paper, leaving no room "outside" the map for information about the map as a whole. These cartographers typically place such information in an otherwise "blank" region "inside" the map -- cartouche, map legend, title, compass rose, bar scale, etc. In particular, some maps contain smaller "sub-maps" in otherwise blank regions—often one at a much smaller scale showing the whole globe and where the whole map fits on that globe, and a few showing "regions of interest" at a larger scale in order to show details that wouldn't otherwise fit." [Map. Wikipedia]
The example "Design elements - Subway map, Map symbols" is included in the Directional Maps solution from the Maps area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

"A tourist sign, often referred to as a brown sign, is a traffic sign whose purpose is to direct visitors to tourist destinations, such as historic buildings, tourist regions, caravan or camp sites, picnic areas, sporting facilities and cultural places such as museums. By international convention, brown signs with white lettering and white pictograms are often used for this purpose. ...
Basically these tourist signs have 3 main applications:
(1) Information signs and signposts that point to important tourist destinations or places of interest in the local area, for example within a village or town.
(2) Standard signs that are used to mark routes with special themes, i.e. so-called tourist or holiday routes.
(3) Tourist signs that herald the presence of nearby landscapes, towns and regions, usually on long distance routes such as motorways. They are not used as direction signs." [Tourist sign. Wikipedia]
The pictograms example "Recreation signs - Vector stencils library" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Directional Maps solution from the Maps area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
