In the first two games, the radar shows a monochromatic representation of the [[area]]'s terrain, only really highlighting the walls, water, and the locations of gates. Some icons point out the location of [[ship part]]s, [[treasure]]s, [[Onion]]s, and a few other things. While the first two games use the same radar presentations, they have differing art-styles for their radar textures: ''Pikmin'''s area maps are depicted with a smooth style and a blurry fadeout for the edges of the map, while ''Pikmin 2'''s area maps are drawn in a non-smooth style more similar to pixel art, with a more matte fadeout for the edges of the map.

In ''Pikmin 3'', it provides a map of the area, stylized so that water, terrain, structures, and boundary walls are high-contrast and easy to distinguish, but textured to be similar to the actual terrain. There are several icons for all sorts of important objects. As ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'' has slightly different area textures than ''Pikmin 3'', the radar textures are also changed in the ''Deluxe'' version.
