The symbols on a map legend alert the reader to various landmarks and Natural Resources in a country. The symbol for oil on a map's legend is an oil rig.

The United States Geological Survey uses the same legend on all of their maps to avoid confusion when looking at different maps. If one map used one symbol for a specific geologic type of marker and another map used another symbol, it would be extremely difficult to read the maps quickly and efficiently.
The legend of the map also contains important information and all of the thematic symbols of the map. Symbol that need no explanation, or do not coincide with the theme of the map, are normally omitted from the map legend. Thematic symbols directly represent the maps theme and should stand out. Hope this helps!! :-)

Special map elements help us to understand, read, and interpret the map's contents. These elements include a symbol legend, scale bar, north arrow, descriptive text, projection information, inset maps, index maps, and the map title.
