This answer is based on the definition of an information map as "a visualization tool and can show either the index of information that is available or required and where it can be found, or the flow of information and will comprise information elements and the relation between them" 1. An information map is a way to represent the business vocabulary and the associations among different information concepts. It is not a target description of information assets, a description of the business units, or a representation of where the business information is held, which are different aspects of information management.

This answer is based on the relationship between information maps and business capability maps as described in the TOGAF Series Guide: Information Mapping 1. According to this guide, "Information Maps are a part of the core set of artifacts that provide a powerful representation of the business. Information Maps are also a high-level description of the informational requirements of a business and are a key input into its Information Systems Architecture design." Therefore, information maps are most related to business capability maps, which define "what" a business does at its core. The other options are not as closely related to information maps, as they focus on different aspects of the business architecture.

This answer is based on the benefit of business models as communication tools, as stated in the article "Business Models - Example, Types, Importance & Advantages" 2. According to this article, "Advantages of Business Models. A good business model gives the company a competitive edge in the industry. A strong business model provides the company good reputation in the market place encouraging investors to remain invested in the company." One of the ways that a good business model can achieve these advantages is by improving communication among business executives, as well as with other stakeholders such as customers, suppliers, and investors. A clear and concise business model can help convey the value proposition, target market, revenue streams, and cost structure of the business in an effective way. The other options are not as accurate or relevant as benefits of business models.
