On the server-side and single-player side. I have been looking around for resetting maps and all I seem to be able to find is how to reset the whole playable map itself, which is not what I wanted, at all. I know how to reset a world map . I want to know how to reset or clear those little hand-held maps that are in-game.
Surely there must be a way to do this?

Not in vanilla.
If you want an empty map that you can use at a new spot you can make a new one.
If you want the map to cover the same area but be updated you'll have to carry it (or a copy) back to the area it depicts and run around holding it to update it.

Just testing.

Wouldn't it be easier to just use creative mode or a command to give yourself a stack of fresh maps?
But why bother?
Crafting a map takes 1 redstone, 4 iron ingots and 8 pieces of paper, more paper if you want it zoomed out.
Unless you REALLY hate mining I don't see that as that big a deal.
