Overview

In World of Warcraft, this usually refers to the World Map accessible from the Interface Bar by clicking the globe button in the right-middle section (or using the default key shortcut: M).

Sometimes people use this term when referring to the Mini-Map.

UI Mods

Atlas is a UI mod that grants access to maps that would normally not be available in-game. The package includes maps for all the instances, flight path maps and more. Be wary that those maps are NOT interactive (i.e. you cannot see your current position nor your teammates').

Yatlas is a UI mod that allows the user to view the entire minimap of both continents. Features include panning, zooming, player tracking and functionality with CT_MapMod mapnotes.

On the web

Mapwow is a Google Earth -based map of all of Azeroth. You can activate location names, zone names, travel paths, as well as the ressources found in each region. Very useful for farming ore, herbs, etc.
