To make my task easier, i wanna have an app that basically creates a minecraft map of my world and allows me to place markers at a very specific location wherever i wish to represent say, a village.
that way, i know exactly how my terraforming of my survival world should proceed on a grand scale for roleplay purposes.
Mineatlas is good, but doesn't show any of the new biomes after 1.12 (it won't differentiate between the ocean types or show new structures like pillager outposts).
Amidst is a freestanding application that will show the terrain and generated structures like villages, desert temples, witch huts, pillager outposts, ocean monuments, etc. It will also give you coordinates as well.
MCASelector is a java application that will show you the current state of the world, including all terraforming and structures that you have built. Be careful with it because it can also be used to delete chunks from your world.

thanks so all three of them allow me to place markers showing where villages are? and your mcaselector link doesnt work lol
Mineatlas and Amidst will place the markers for you (they are generated by reading the seed information). MCA Selector will show you the buildings in the world so you can see the villages that way.
If you want an accurate of the explored world (that part that have had the chunks created and saved to disk) then you should install Minutor.
Attached is a Minutor screen capture (I used Alt-PrtSc and Paint Shop Pro to make it a jpg file.) of a 1.12.2 world I just started.
The thing in the center is an Iron farm.
Minutor gives you a view from whatever Y level you choose from 255 to zero at a resolution high enough to identify each and every block.
I suggest that you create a folder in .minecraft named Minutor and place the program in that.
That makes it much easier when you wish to navigate to a world folder for map display.

Fixed the link

Now days you can get markers on the normal Minecraft maps by placing banners at those location.
That would of course limit you to the vanilla map functionality.
Just testing.
