Dimensions are usually drawn between the walls to specify room sizes and wall lengths. Floor plans will also include details of fixtures like sinks, water heaters, furnaces, etc. Floor plans will include notes to specify finishes, construction methods, or symbols for electrical items.

Terminal area charts are used in US and Canadian aviation. These are aeronautical charts used for navigation under Visual Flight Rules that show areas surrounding major airports. These charts depict topographic features and other information of interest to aviators flying visually, including major landmarks, terrain elevations, visual navigation routes, ground-based navigation aids, airports, rivers, cities, and airspace boundaries.

Nautical charts map maritime areas and surrounding coastal regions. Most nautical charts like the one above show depths of water and heights of land, seabed features, and navigational hazards. Some charts also show tides, currents, harbours, buildings, and bridges.

A tectonic map is a representation of structural elements related to the tectonic history of the upper crust of a planetary body. The different structural areas and their separate elements such as faults and folds are shown by various symbols; when combined with a geologic map, data regarding the age and type of rocks comprising the structural elements are given, along with their development over time.
