 The Local Map Interface utilizes a specific set of stellar charts from a particular galaxy exploration database. Usually, the local maps will indicate the borders of each of the major sovereign political governments known to exist in the area. These maps can range from a few hundred to a few thousand light years in size depending on the database. Because the maps show only the top two-dimensional view of the local area (the "radial" view), a secondary metric to the right of the map shows an expanded third-dimensional view (the "axial" view) of each select-able sector block on the radial view. This axial view highlights four sector blocks above and below the galactic plane, one of which must be selected after the two-dimensional sector block is chosen on the main radial view map. The Local Map Interface utilizes a specific set of stellar charts from a particular galaxy exploration database.

 The System Map Interface shows detailed information of the planets and star within a particular star system. Normally, the name of a star will also indicate the name of the system, but this is not always the case, especially if intelligent, indigenous life inhabits the system, or if the system is of strategic importance. An example would be the "Vulcan System": While the star is named "Epsilon Eridani", the main habitable planet is named "Vulcan". Furthermore, the technical name of each planet in the the system is the name of the star with the Roman numeral of the planet's position in the system with respect to the other planets. However, as with the planetary system name, if intelligent indigenous life exists within the system, it may possess another name (eg, "Saturn" instead of "Sol VI"). This map interface utilizes detailed astronomical parameters regarding each planet and their associated star. For explanations of each parameter, either click on them in the System Map Interface, or choose from the list below. The System Map Interface shows detailed information of the planets and star within a particular star system.
