Gartner defines it as:
“A graphical representation that is used to illustrate the milestones and deliverables required to transition to a future state from a current state over a specific period of time”

What’s in a Roadmap:
• Strategy Statement (strategic priorities)
• Initiatives & Projects (timeline)• Risks / Potential
Changes+Disruptions
• Optional: Project Justifications, Costs, Owners
