I don't think it's related to the civil war questline, but it's a good way to get every town and fort marked on your map early in the game, there's one of these maps in the Jarl's place in each of the hold capitals, so you can just activate each location on the map in Dragonsreach as soon as you get to Whiterun whenever you start a new game.
