The Map ribbon provides controls that work directly with the map and its content, allowing the user to navigate the map and plot information. There are ten icons hosted here:

1. -- Full extent: Zooms the map to the state boundary
2. -- Zoom in: Zooms in toward the map
3.   -- Zoom out: Zooms away from the map
4.  -- Zoom area: Changes the map zoom to a user defined area
5. -- Zoom to query results: Zooms the map to the results of the currently defined query
6.  -- Change map display: Opens a pop-up which allows a user to specify the projects displayed based on certain filters
7. -- Identify feature: Allows the user to select any GIS feature and retrieve information
8.  -- Identify route: Allows the user to select any route and retrieve information
9.  -- Basemaps: Opens a list of available basemaps for the user; affects map appearance
10.  -- Print map: Opens a print dialogue for users to print the map

Each icon listed is designed to work directly with the map, giving users a spatial experience with project data in the STIP. Users can reference this list as a reminder for the functionality of the icons, but they can also simply hover their mouse over the unknown icon to display its given name.
