I mean basically title:
1) I have 15 Pathfinder 2e Maps. What are they for? Do I print them out on some kind of large paper IRL? Are they for VTT? If yes, are they compatible with Foundry?
2) I have 11 Pathfinder Tales. What is a Pathfinder tale?
3) What are Pathfinder Organized Play things for? I have some Season 1 and Season 4 stuff. Would I use it to DM a Pathfinder Society Game for points? If so that is neat.
4) What are Pathfinder Pawns? I have a "Bigger Forest Map" (For what?) And Pathfinder Abomination Vault Pawns (Are they like monster tokens? DO I print them out? Are they for importing into a VTT?)
5) What are Flip Mats?
I guess the main question is: Where and how do I use this stuff?

Can you please provide background on where you got this digital content?
Was it from the recent Humble Bundle? If so, what specifically did you purchase.
Okay all of this content is from a Humble Bundle awhile back which also included the Core Rulebook Physical Copy, as well as this here most recent Humble Bundle at $25 for the Abomination Vault Foundry VTT Edition, which I also redeemed on Foundry but do not know how to use (yet.) I am new to DM and basically internet tools. I paint minis in real life :x

I have only ever used Roll20, but it does let me upload my Abomination Vaults maps as map images to use. It takes a little bit of tinkering to get the scale correct so that the grid scale on the image matches close enough to the grid scale on the VTT. I expect that Foundry would do the same.
2) I have 11 Pathfinder Tales. What is a Pathfinder tale?
I'm not sure, but it sounds cool. Maybe a 1-shot adventure? Maybe just a fiction story that you could use as a jumping off point for a homebrew adventure?
3) What are Pathfinder Organized Play things for? I have some Season 1 and Season 4 stuff. Would I use it to DM a Pathfinder Society Game for points? If so that is neat.
You could at the very least use them as short campaigns with friends. Not entirely sure how PFS works.
4) What are Pathfinder Pawns? I have a "Bigger Forest Map" (For what?) And Pathfinder Abomination Vault Pawns (Are they like monster tokens? DO I print them out? Are they for importing into a VTT?)
Digital copies of these would be for VTTs, yes. Again, you would probably have to manually upload and configure them.
5) What are Flip Mats?
I have some of those. They are for making arbitrary terrain. I printed mine out and laminated them, so they are more like physical copies (which you could also just buy that way - I think they come printed on thin foam or something like that). Depending on VTT, you may be able to upload them like maps and create arbitrary terrain there too.

the Abomination Vault Foundry VTT Edition, which I also redeemed on Foundry but do not know how to use (yet.)
The Foundry Module for Abomination Vaults should come pre-tinkered once you get Foundry itself up and running and enable the module.
I've never done it, so I can't help with the details. But that is my understanding of how it is supposed to work.
