United Federation of Planets Executive Agencies (Department of Cartography). The Department of Cartography was an agency inside the Federation government that managed the distribution of information concerning traffic patterns, navigational anomalies, and other unusual phenomena inside Federation space. In 2375, Luther Sloan posed as "Wendell Greer", an assistant director of the Department of Cartography, in order to attend a joint Federation-Romulan conference about the Dominion War on Romulus. (DS9: "Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges") Additonal duties of this agency, from the Star Trek Encyclopedia (4th ed., vol. 1, p. 263) included the "collection, maintenance, and distribution of map products within the Federation." Starfleet Cartography Captain Picard and Data view an uplink from Starfleet Cartography Starfleet Cartography was a division of the exploratory agency responsible for creating and maintaining maps and star charts. In 2379, Starfleet Cartography established an uplink with the USS Enterprise, sending the crew information regarding their position in Romulan space related to the position of Star Fleet Battle Group Omega, on the other side of the Neutral Zone. The uplink was disrupted, however, when the Enterprise entered the Bassen Rift, a region of space where all subspace communications were blocked, providing the perfect site for Praetor Shinzon to conduct an ambush while commanding the Reman Warbird Scimitar. (Star Trek Nemesis)
