Sitemaps are an easy way for webmasters to inform search engines about pages on their sites that are available for crawling. In its simplest form, a Sitemap is an XML file that lists URLs for a site along with additional metadata about each URL (when it was last updated, how often it usually changes, and how important it is, relative to other URLs in the site) so that search engines can more intelligently crawl the site.

Note that a sitemap is not a requirement, and for a small site is likely to be unnecessary.

Hello friend, Sitemap is for website is file to be submitted on webmaster. There are two types of sitemap one is XML sitemap which is submitted to webmaster and second is HTML sitemap. HTML is not necessary to submit but it is for user who comes on website. Through HTML sitemap all the pages will be shown on the same page. I know this much information about sitemap. Thanks
