Atlas
See the footer for information on the current owner of World of Darkness and Werewolf: the Apocalypse IP.
Atlas contains a map and spreadsheet companion to the map with additional information.
Rage Across Google Maps
This Google map contains the location of official and custom Septs, Caerns, Hives, and other sacred places in the Werewolf: The Apocalypse setting.
Not every site listed a specific location, or the location was fictional, and so a best-guess approach was taken for those.
Entries with "ELU" indicate that the exact location is unknown or not specified, and the site has been placed where seems reasonable given the information.
Entries with "FL" indicate that they are placed in a fictional location (to the best of my knowledge), such as a town that does not exist in the real world.
Entries with "H" indicate that they are a site from another point in history, and may or may not still exist in modern times.
Entries with "MET" indicate that they are from Mind's Eye Theatre canon, which may deviate considerably from Table Top canon.
Entries with "C" indicate that they are a custom location and made by fans.
Entries with "U" indicate that it is a site that exists in the Umbra, and might not also have a corresponding physical location.
Each location entry contains the basic information available for that site, and the source [book, page] is cited at the bottom of the entry. Some contain information drawn from more than one source.
Some Septs and Caerns are named but there is no other information on them, not even an approximate location. For obvious reasons, these will not be included on the map. They will still be listed in the map companion spreadsheet.
Umbral sites without a terrestrial, physical correspondence are in null space above the map.
Custom locations are fan-made and sourced as the game they are featured in, and are shown in a separate map layer. If you would like yours listed, use the form in the "Add to the Atlas" section below.
Protectorates not attached to a Caern might be added later if sufficient information can be extrapolated about their area of influence.

"The Temple of Our Father the Destroyer" added to a vaguely triangular lot in the Pedham Bay area of the Bronx, on the current location of a TD Bank because TD is the largest financial backer of Enbridge's Line 3 Pipeline, and so a sufficiently atrocious physical correspondence even if it isn't the same type as described in the lore for the Umbral site.

Map Companion Spreadsheet
The Cyber Record's Map Companion spreadsheet is available to assist in searching for Septs and Caerns by a listed quality (such as by Caern type, or Tribe in control). This spreadsheet also includes entries that could not be represented on the map itself, due a lack of information to determine where to place a marker for it.
The first "page" or sheet of the spreadsheet (default view) is a guide for how to navigate and make a copy for your own use. "All Locations" includes all locations regardless of their source (Official Tabletop, Official MET, or Custom). You can view pages that show "TT Locations Only", "MET Locations Only", and "Custom Locations Only" by clicking on their corresponding tab at the bottom of the sheet to see only those types of entries, if desired.
The Map Companion Google Sheet uses the same "legend" as the map itself:
Entries with "ELU" indicate that the exact location is unknown or not specified, and the site has been placed where seems reasonable given the information.
Entries with "FL" indicate that they are placed in a fictional location (to the best of my knowledge), such as a town that does not exist in the real world.
Entries with "H" indicate that they are a site from another point in history, and may or may not still exist in modern times.
Entries with "MET" indicate that they are from Mind's Eye Theatre canon, which may deviate considerably from Table Top canon.
Entries with "U" indicate that it is a site that exists in the Umbra, and might not also have a corresponding physical location.
These are mentioned in a note (indicated by a black triangle in the upper right corner of a cell) attached to the name of the entry, if applicable.
As with the map, each location entry contains the basic information available for that site, and the source [book, page] is cited in its own column. Some contain information drawn from more than one source, and in some cases additional information such as which Indigenous land the site is located in, if there is a Wyrm-creature bound and contained by it, is also included in their own columns.
Other Spreadsheets
Laughing Hyena's list of Caerns and locations presented in Google Sheets form, transcribed from their compiled information. This sheet contains all sacred places, including ones that could not be usefully included in the map (such as those with no provided location) or from games other than Werewolf (such as Changeling, Vampire, etc)
