ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Perfect map

Okay, imagine you and your friend want to draw a map of your neighborhood. You draw it on a piece of paper, but you realize that it doesn't show everything correctly. Some roads are missing, some buildings look different, and some trees are missing. So, you try to redraw it, but it still isn't perfect.

A perfect map is a map that shows everything accurately, just like how it looks in real life. It includes all the roads, buildings, trees, and everything else you can see. Imagine it's like taking a picture of your neighborhood from above and putting it on paper so you can see everything.

Creating a perfect map is tough because it requires a lot of work and attention to detail. People who create perfect maps use special equipment like drones and satellite cameras to capture images from above. They then use those images to make the map as accurate as possible.

The purpose of a perfect map is to help people find their way around and understand what's around them better. It helps people know where they are and how to get to where they want to go without getting lost. That's why maps are so important!
