This is what is referred to by climbers as a topo route guide. Instead of using contour lines however it uses a 2d representation of the path needed to take along the rock in a vertical direction. It often lists distances between anchors and takes into consideration of any special gear needed for that specific route. Paired with a real picture overlay-ed with a line showing the route a climber will know exactly the way to go.
