# '''Refine maps:''' Select a map and select one or more refinements. At each refinement, you are given a choice of refinement will permanently upgrade that map. Each refinement happens instantly, but the {{GP}} costs increase exponentially with each refinement. Refinements will be lost once the map has been exhausted through {{Skill|Archaeology}} actions. Refining maps is optional, but recommended as it will help reduce time taken excavating sites for rare items.

Maps have three stages of upgrades that influence the Artefact Values of the Map for use in {{Skill|Archaeology}}, as well as increasing the amount of {{Skill|Archaeology}} actions that can be performed before the Map is exhausted.
 
Upgrading a map to the next tier always takes exactly 1920 actions (2h, 40m with the base Cartography interval of 5 seconds), and costs an amount of {{ItemIcon|Paper}} depending on the tier of map being upgraded.
