Maps come in all shapes and sizes, and in varying degrees
of quality as well. Most maps are digital files that can be
downloaded onto a computer, but physical maps are also
available. The prices listed on Table 1–31 are for both digital
or physical maps. There are two broad categories of maps:
survey and navigational. Survey maps are usually made when
an area is first discovered and surveyed. They describe the
general shape and features of the region but lack detail and
precision. Navigational maps, by contrast, are based on detailed
explorations. They are extremely accurate and have in-depth
detail on the detailed region's features. In addition, maps differ
based on the size of the area they cover: local maps depict an
area up to 1,000 square miles, regional maps depict an area up
to 10,000 square miles, planetary maps depict an entire planet,
and system-wide maps depict an entire star system.
A map grants you a circumstance bonus to Survival checks
perform the orienteering task or Piloting checks to navigate
within the region detailed by the map; survey maps grant a +1
bonus, and navigational maps grant a +2 bonus. You gain the
bonus for using a map only if you are traveling directly through
the area depicted by the map. For instance, you gain no bonus
from a planetary map when navigating on foot through the
streets of a settlement, but you would gain the bonus when
plotting a course to a different location on that planet.
