Annual 136 has a template for star charts.
Before it came out, I just made up a color chart for star types, and made rectangles of constellations.
I agree with Monsen in that large maps should be left until later. I did sub-sector maps, sector maps, then partial galaxy arm maps. Here is my Traveller site for ideas.

Update, room dimensions added this time.
I think this is complete, unless someone wants additional symbols, rooms, etc.
The Hidden level 03
rooms on this level are 10' to 30' high. Room 3 is taller. From level 02 down to level 03 is 150'.
1 ) entrance from level 2. 50' x 50' x 10' Has two trees showing autumnal leaves.
2 ) 120' x 40' x 15' barricades, 2 broken barrels, a ballista, and two piles of skulls east of the barricades.
3 ) a large circular room 150' x 50' ; partioned off is a living area with beds, a stove, table and chairs, food storage. A crate of pears and a crate of apples. Outside the partition are two crates with valuable looking stone heads and a barrel.
High up on the southeast is an opening, 30' to the bottom of the opening. It leads to room 11.
4 ) 60' x 40' x 20' empty of all but dust, no foot prints. A ranger of elf might spot that there were footprints, but they have been smoothed over. Side room has wood debris and a small chest.
5 ) A cave 10' to 30' high. and a passageway that leads to the north side of The Hidden hill.
6 ) A room of an outer rectangular 'ring' of 20' high and an inner rectangular room of 10' high. Giant beetles in the outer area, two trolls with meat trays so they don't attack the beetles, and one small 10' x 10' x 10' room where a lone adventurer died while trying to avoid being eaten by either the trolls or the beetles.
7 ) 110' x 40' x 30' Two trees, a cauldron, and a table. Anyone entering the room and walking over to the cauldron or table will hear whispering 'climb into the cauldron for a nice hot bath...'. How the trees will dine on whomever climbs into the cooking cauldron is unknown.
8 ) 10' x 10' x 10' + 60' x 10' x 15' An L-shaped room off the passageway. The secret door is marked by the wood debris. A broken board and a small chest are in the room.
9 ) 30' x 90' x 25' A hidden room. Three heads on spikes seem to be a warning, but only two broken chairs are visible. The tables could have small compartments in a table leg or buit into the bottom of the table.
10 A ) odd-shaped room, 20' high. tropical trees
10 B ) odd-shaped room, 15' high. Winter/snow trees with two ogres who are ordered to defend the chest and crates.
10 C ) 110' x 40' x 20' Desert cacti, with giant ants guarding the area.
11 ) 50' x 30' x 10' barricade and skeletal remains. Six snow covered trees seemingly protecting a crate.

Community Atlas: Errynor - Selass Town
Yes, but many of those first years, I had no one to talk to. And my maps weren't very good. Seriously not very good. The ones on my Old Crestar site are typically a big improvement. Then I was on Yahoo groups, and was one of those who voted for this forum to come into existence. Hmm... So, maybe I've been doing this for more than 18 years ?!
