Octane material and Gloss-Reflection

Hi,
Poliigon textures have Gloss map and Reflection map. Which is the difference between the two maps? I assume that gloss map is roughness (inverted)...but reflection? Is it specular?

thanx

Poliigon - bad but yes polygon!?!

What's material? mirror, metal, gold, glass or...?

EDIT: more glossy = less roughness

- reflection
eg: more reflection = mirror more visible; less reflection = mirror less visible

reflection isn't specular.

For study glossy and specular materials - see Octane Render's manual. ;)
