A '''tuning map''' represents the tuning of a regular tuning system, such as a [[regular temperament]]. It specifies the tuning of a temperament in terms of logarithmic [[interval size unit]]s (such as [[cent]]s or [[octave]]s) rather than scale steps. It can take a vector representation of an interval ([[monzo]]) as input and outputs its tempered size.

A tempered-prime tuning map has one entry for each [[basis element]] of the temperament's JI subgroup (e.g. 2, 9, 5 in a 2.9.5-subgroup temperament), giving its size in cents, octaves, or any other logarithmic interval size unit.
