Custom maps should be kept in a sub-directory of your EverQuest map directory. For example,
C:\users\public\Everquest\maps\Good's Maps
C:\users\public\Everquest\maps\Collection Ground Spawns
C:\users\public\Everquest\maps\Brewall's Maps
In-game, you switch between map folders via a dropdown in the top left corner of the map.
Good's maps are known for their detail and broad community support. They post updates and answers in this thread,

Layer 1: Non agro NPCs: (M)erchants, (T)asks, (Q)uests, (Mi)ssions (R)aid etc.
Layer 2: Quests/Tasks/Missions informations and updates, ground spawn, containers, camp or any usefull zone informations.
Layer 3: Zone Wide Rare often used for achievements or treasures dropper. Will also use layer 3 in towns and non agressive zones to isolate layer 1 from been over crowded. Making them often hard to read. In that case, guild masters and spell/disc vendors will be moved there.
