Hello Mellomrom,

Thanks for posting in Apple Support Communities!

We understand that you'd like to know what a specific symbol in the Maps app indicates. We'd be happy to help you out.

Are you using Apple Maps or a third-party map app? Check the name of the app to make sure. The image you attached in your post does not appear to look like Apple Maps.

To learn more about Maps and the features within the app, we would suggest checking out the "Maps" section in the iPhone user guide. Here's how to View maps on iPhone.

If you're using a third-party app, look for a menu that may explain the symbols and features within the app, otherwise it may help to reach out to the developer for support. Here's How to contact an app developer.

Have a nice day.
