Traditional atlases organize places.
A discovery atlas organizes significance.
Certain regions repeatedly participate in structural evolution, resource accumulation, boundary interaction, persistence networks, and geological transitions.
This paper evaluates whether those recurring patterns can be organized into a planetary-scale framework for understanding discovery potential.
A discovery atlas does not predict every discovery.
It identifies where independent reasons to investigate repeatedly accumulate.
The map becomes a framework for prioritizing attention.
