Is a sitemap still important in SEO?

Is there a still need for the webmaster to submit a sitemap to search engine like Google or nowadays sitemap is not that important for SEO? I bet Google can find all URLs on its own without any sitemap or url-list. So sitemap should I submit it to Google or not and if I don't submit any will that affect SEO?

P.S. SEO = Search Engine Optimization.

Yes sitemap submission is till important in seo, google will index your site easily, after sitemap submission you will come to know about the site errors and indexing status of your site urls.

Sitemap is important but it's not required so it will have huge impact on your SEO. It will only affect your site indexing speed as without any sitemap Google will spend more time digging out/finding all URLs then chances are many URLs will not get index!
