Answer:

To look at map's title

Step-by-step explanation:

Encyclopedic definition of a map is a symbolic representation of selected characteristics of a place, usually drawn on a flat surface. Besides this definition maps have common features: date, orientation, grid, scale, title, author, index, legend, and sources. Among these the map’s title tells us what the map is about. It reveals the map’s purpose and content.
