Understanding the geometric and semantic structure of environments is essential for embodied navigation and reasoning. Existing semantic mapping methods trade off between explicit geometry and multi-scale semantics, and lack a native interface for large models, thus requiring additional training of feature projection for semantic alignment. To this end, we propose the multi-scale Gaussian-Language Map (GLMap), which introduces three key designs: (1) explicit geometry, (2) multi-scale semantics covering both instance and region concepts, and (3) a dual-modality interface where each semantic unit jointly stores a natural language description and a 3D Gaussian representation. The 3D Gaussians enable compact storage and fast rendering of task-relevant images via Gaussian splatting. To enable efficient incremental construction, we further propose a Gaussian Estimator that analytically derives Gaussian parameters from dense point clouds without gradient-based optimization. Experiments on ObjectNav, InstNav, and SQA tasks show that GLMap effectively enhances target navigation and contextual reasoning, while remaining compatible with large-model-based methods in a zero-shot manner.
