"Search for the map room that will lead you to the secrets of Halo."
The Silent Cartographer is the fourth mission of the Installation 04 Campaign in Halo SPV3. The Covenant believe that Halo's Map Room - The Silent Cartographer - is somewhere under an island, concealed within the multiple structures on it. John-117 leads the UNSC ODSTs in an assault on an island that contains the map room for the Halo Installation, in order to locate the Control Room.
Overview & Background[]
The level begins with two Pelicans dropping off the player along with several ODSTs at a beach. The new assault adds a couple of Wraiths on the front, although they are quickly destroyed(at times a mortar could possibly hit you on higher difficulties).

Trivia[]
- There are 18 terminals scattered throughout the level.
- 3 UNSC Datapads belong to Alexander Locklear
- 3 UNSC Datapads belong to Elias Haverson
- 3 Covenant Datapads belong to Gargartus
- 3 Covenant Datapads belong to Tsek Vadum
- In Halo: Combat Evolved, Marines were used for the initial beach raid, but in Halo SPV3, ODSTs are used instead.
- Originally, the Elite that locks the security door is a Zealot but in SPV3, it is an Elite Honor Guard Ultra instead.
- In the opening FMV, it is possible, though very rare, to be killed by one of the Mortar Wraith's before gameplay begins. This causes the level to glitch and SPV3 must be restarted to correct it.
- The Commander, one of the new missions added in 2019, uses the same level design as this mission.
