“in roadmap” vs “on roadmap”












0















In software development planning, a roadmap is used to describe what lies ahead. In our industry, we say: "put it in the roadmap". But when it comes to maps, I would search "on" a map.



Do I say something is "in the roadmap" or "on the roadmap"?

  • With the map folded up, it's in the roadmap. Spread the map out on the table and it's on the roadmap. (Seriously, if you consider the metaphor.)

An English idiom is: put (someone, something, or some place) on the map TFD




To make some place or thing very famous or renowned; to establish some
place as being remarkable or noteworthy.




It works nicely here in your question:




In our industry, we have "put x on the map".
