A star chart is any mapping of three-dimensional space, usually undertaken by the stellar cartography department of a starship, retrieved and edited there or in astrometrics laboratories for navigation purposes.

During the early voyages of the Enterprise, the crew often consulted the Vulcan star charts. (Star Trek: Enterprise)

When Doctor Beverly Crusher was caught in a static warp bubble and her universe began to shrink, the computer informed her that Tau Alpha C was not listed on any current star map. (TNG: "Remember Me")

In 2369, Major Kira Nerys asked Deep Space 9's Cardassian computer for the star charts of the Argosian sector. The computer instead showed her the star charts of the Glessene sector. (DS9: "Babel")

In early 2374, Captain Benjamin Sisko asked Elim Garak to study several star charts. (DS9: "A Time to Stand")

A star chart of Federation space was displayed at Starfleet Headquarters in 2364. It was located in the room where Dexter Remmick was killed while sending a homing beacon, after he was posessed by neural parasites. (TNG:"Conspiracy") The same map was seen in the court room on Starbase 173 (TNG:"The Measure of a Man") , the tactical laboratory in (TNG: "The Mind's Eye") and in the classroom aboard Deep Space 9. (TNG:"In the Hands of the Prophets")

Many TOS and TAS homages were included in the chart which was created by the art department.
