I've got this poster (slightly different background):

Here's a detail of it:
http://www.scipubtech.com/n1701d.htm

How accurate and canon is this? It doesn't show a Stellar Cartography room from Generations, that's the only inaccuracy i could find (well, they never mentioned it in TNG anyways, so it could be right after all).

From http://www.scipubtech.com/stprods.htm
I didn't know there were this much cutaway posters! How about the others (canon/accurate)

My friend has this poster. It's been a while since I looked at it, but I do recall it labeled some of the dorsal saucer section's escape pod hatches as cargo doors. I also think there was a screw-up with mislabeling some of the transporter emitters, too.

Two possibilities: One, the large SC display room just doesn't happen to fall on any of the cutting lines in this picture. Or, two, that room was one of the things added during the upgrade before Generations (also an explanation of why we never saw it before then).

I have got 2 posibilities too:
-The entire SC thing is a holodeck programme
-Refit addition (most likely)

I don't see any mislabeled escape pods.
I like the fact that it hides 'problem areas', like the Captain's Yacht and the back of the nacelle (control room?)

I believe that poster labels the saucer RCS as gangway hatches.

Does the Voyager cutaway poster show the dropship? If it does, I really need to get that poster. Does it show how the front oart of the Delta Flyer connects to its aft section?

Regarding Stellar Cartography, my theory is that it's been there all along (like 10 Forward, just not seen right away) but it was UPGRADED sometime during TNGs 6th or 7th season or right before Generations.

I'm going for upgrade too here.

About the Voyager poster: I have it, and yes it shows the dropship, but not apart from Voyager.
Inside the Delta Flyer it show the 'pilot area' as if it is the only room in the ship. Like they show it it just hasn't got any space left for an extra rear room...

That blows! Don't the people who do these posters watch the show first?! I mean, you'd think they'd have to just to get reference or at least get schematics and photos from official sources. Errrrrr!

Well, it is at such and angle that there could possibly be another room there. Its open to interpretation.
