Titles are important map elements, and type size should be two to three times the size of the type on the map itself. A subtitle, in smaller type, is appropriate for longer titles or more complex map subjects.

Title - Usually draws attention by virtue of its dominant size; serves to focus attention on the primary content of the map; may be omitted where captions are provided but are not part of the map itself.

LegendsLegendsThe legend is the graphic guide that you provide to your audience. You do not always need to provide symbols for all of the information used in your maps.

Legend - The principal symbol-referent description on the map; subordinate to the title, but a key element in map reading; serves to describe all unknown symbols used.

ScaleScaleLarge scale maps should always include a scale. Maps that inform the user about differences in distance or area should also include a scale. Small scale maps may not need a scale, as scale varies greatly with world or continental projections.
Verbal and visual scales make more sense to the average reader. Include a visual scale if the map will be reprinted or resized.

Map Scale - Usually included on a thematic map; it provides the reader with important information regarding linear relations on the map; can be graphic, verbal, or expressed as an RF.

More on Map Scale
““Map Design and Map Design and Layout”Layout”
Map scale is a unit of measurement on the Map scale is a unit of measurement on the map related to the appropriate number of map related to the appropriate number of same units on the Earth’s surface and is same units on the Earth’s surface and is usually stated as a representative usually stated as a representative fraction.fraction.
For example: 1/24,000 or 1:24,000 scale One (1) unit on the map represents 24,000 units on the ground (1 inch = 24,000 inches which equates to 1 inch = 2000 feet).

Inset Map or Location Diagram – This informs the map user of the context of the map, i.e. the big picture. This will keep the user from having to guess the location of the map.

Borders and Neatlines - Both optional; borders can serve to restrain eye movement; neatlines are finer lines than borders, drawn inside them and often rendered as part of the graticule; used mostly for decoration.

- Often omitted from thematic maps today; should be included if their locational information is crucial to the map’s purpose; usually treated as background or secondary information. Grids show the same information, but display it across the body of the map and not just along the neatline.
