For an ''Array_2D_Map'', follow the instructions for [[Filling Out the Array_2D Data Structure]], with the following additional constraints/requirements:
 
* Use '''<Array_2D_Map>''' and '''</Array_2D_Map>''' rather than '''<Array_2D>''' and '''</Array_2D>'''.

The <Array_2D_Map> class is a specialization of the Array_2D class. It exists on the assumption that PDS will develop map-specific requirements and software support that will be able to take advantage of assumptions and structures made for this data type.

So far, none of that has happened, nor does it appear to be in any sort of serious planning stage. The Array_2D_Map is currently defined in the schema to have the same structure as Array_2D and also requires the deprecated <Display_2D_Image> class. Consequently, SBN strongly recommends that you do not use the Array_2D_Map structure.
