Why Cartography Matters in Dune
Mapping in Dune: Awakening is more than exploration. It’s about discovering spice zones, loot spots, and perfect base building locations. Skilled Cartographers gain a tactical edge that’s essential for PvE navigation and intel acquisition.

Sinkcharts: What They Are and How to Use Them
Sinkcharts are blank maps you populate using scanned data. Buy them from traders and link them with the Cartographer passive (Planetologist tree).

Skill Tree & Cartographer Passive
To use sinkcharts, you need points in the Planetologist skill tree. Unlock the Cartographer passive and required tool proficiencies to scan regions and document them.

Essential Tools: Scanners and Survey Probes
Combine a handheld scanner and a Survey Probe Launcher to record data. Craft both tools or buy them from vendors. They’re used to collect terrain and environmental structure info.

Probing the Desert
Survey Probes launch from high ground. Fly over key locations and activate the probe to map the area. This helps reveal rich spice zones, landmarks, and safe zones.
