I'm creating a standardized map template for our team that fixes scale, projection, color rules and a naming structure for source materials. I don't want juniors to accidentally use wrong projections or mix up field sketches. Advise the authoritative structure and three non-negotiable metadata fields to bake into the template, and give the wording for a team brief that explains why these rules matter. Keep it practical for a shared drive rollout next month.

Questions people ask

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
