I purchased a woodland mansion map from the local cartographer and the cartographer still offers to sell me those maps. I assume that when I use the map for the first time, it will show me the way to the nearest woodland mansion and that if I have multiple maps I have to make sure I don't open a second map from the same general area or it will lead me to the same target. Is that correct? If so, how far do I have to travel to make sure that I will be led to different woodland mansion when I open another of these maps? Same question goes for ocean explorer maps.
I'm pretty sure all woodland explorer maps from the same cartographer will show the same mansion.
And to have a chance to get a different map from a different cartographer in the same area I think you have to have traveled to the first mansion before unlocking their trades.

From the Trivia section of the Explorer Map Wiki page:
When a cartographer generates the trade offers for the explorer maps, it chooses the location of one of the nearest structures of the respective type (ocean monument or woodland mansion).
For the reason above, explorer maps obtained from one cartographer will always be the same. Also, if two cartographers unlock the explorer map trades approximately at the same place and the same time, the map locations will usually be identical.

Just testing.
Thanks! I must have overlooked the Trivia section! I'm glad I didn't purchase more of these maps. They are very expensive. :-)
