Its a cognitive map,
this is because when you look around your brain takes all the information the eyes send to it and it builds a 'virtual' image which can be turned into a map. If you're good enough you can actually visualize a room just by using your brain.

I want to note, if you're just looking for the answer for a quiz please read up on the topic, you can get in a lot of trouble for cheating and I am more than willing to help as long as you learn something from my answer!
