Printed maps remain culturally significant in both Brazilian and American contexts, particularly in tourism, education, and outdoor activities. While digital navigation has become prevalent, printed maps are still valued for reliability, aesthetic purposes, and in areas with poor connectivity. In Brazil, printed maps are commonly found at tourist information centers (postos de informação turística) and remain important educational tools in schools.
