A random map is a discrete time process in which one of a number of maps, 𝓜, is chosen at random at each stage and applied. In this note we study a random map, where 𝓜 is a set of piecewise linear Markov maps on [0, 1]. Sufficient conditions are presented which allow the determination of the unique absolutely continuous invariant measure of the process.
