Cartography Table

A cartography table is a utility block found in villages.

Sources

• A cartography table may generate in certain buildings in a Village, but only if the village generated following the release of update 1.14.
• It can be crafted by using a Crafting Table.

Uses

Cartography tables can be used in cloning, zooming out, and expanding maps. If a village has a cartography table but no cartographer, any nearby Villager without a profession has a chance to become a cartographer.

Mechanics

A cartography table can be used to enlarge, copy, or lock a map. A map can be enlarged by combining an existing map and a piece of Paper in the cartography table; A map can be copied by placing it into the table with an empty map; A map can be locked in its current state by placing it in the table with a Glass Pane.

Crafting

Crafting a cartography table is as simple as using four wooden planks of any type with two pieces of paper. It can even be crafted within a 2×2 inventory grid (only in Bedrock Edition).

History

Java Edition

• Snapshot 18w46a - The cartography table's texture was updated.
• Snapshot 18w48a - Cartography tables now generate in some building within Villages in Plains Biomes.

Trivia

• In Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, a cartography table can be used as fuel in a Furnace, Blast Furnace and Smoker, and is able to smelt 2 objects (although this is not its intended purpose).
