[[Installation 00]], the Ark, was home to several Cartographers.{{Ref/Reuse|log cartographer}} One of the facilities was located on top of a massive spire structure, the map room itself lying in a wide open area giving a panoramic view over a massive waterfall and an ocean. Facing the desert on the other side, the Cartographer structure was protected by a large wall structure. Inside the wall was a deep chasm and an [[energy bridge]] allowing passage over it. A [[Terminal (Halo 3)|Terminal]] was located within the wall near the activation switch for the energy bridge. The interiors of this Cartographer shared many architectural similarities with [[Installation 04|Alpha Halo]]'s Cartographer shaft, although the two are considerably different in general layout.{{Ref/Level|Id=theark|H3|[[The Ark (level)|The Ark]]}} | [[Installation 00]], the Ark, was home to several Cartographers.{{Ref/Reuse|log cartographer}} One of the facilities was located on top of a massive spire structure, the map room itself lying in a wide open area giving a panoramic view over a massive waterfall and an ocean.

On Installation 04, the Cartographer was located in an immense underground facility, below the middle of a large island. It was protected by a security system accessible by another underground facility on the other side of the island. These facilities were a part of the installation's larger tunnel network, with a massive shaft leading to the depths of the megastructure in between them. | On Installation 04, the Cartographer was located in an immense underground facility, below the middle of a large island.
