How does a sitemap work?

• A Sitemap is a file you need to create for web
  crawlers as Googlebot that gives them a list of
  website pages to crawl on your website.
• Some Most web crawlers can discover and explore
  all the files of the website. A sitemap file
  helps to the crawler and can also provide the
  metadata such as how often the information on the
  page gets changed and suggesting how often it
  should be crawled by the crawler, all the
  details about content which is difficult for
  search engines to parse, like image or video file
