From EVE University Wiki
Changed section titles so they reflect better their content. Separated section "Flying for fun..." into "General navigation" and "Combat Navigation"
Changed "Directional and system scanner" to "Directional and probe scanner" since no system scanner appear to exist in-game anymore. Reworked the text.

The tactical overlay button (above the Reset Camera button in the buttons to the left of your capacitor/health circle) puts range markers on your view of space (or, if you have it open, on your solar system map) so you can get a better sense of distance. If you mouse over one of your modules while in the tactical overlay, a circle will appear around your ship that shows the range of the module. (See the full [[tactical overlay]] article for more information.).

The system scanner will scan the system for Cosmic Signatures, which are less advanced versions of the actual sites found with exploration. If you have scan probes fitted, they will integrate to form a much more powerful system scanner (see [[Probe scanning]] for more details).
The [[directional scanner]] is a tool on every ship which can scan a sphere with a radius of around 14 AU around you. You can manipulate the scanning range and the direction of the scan from 360º to 180º all the way down to 5º to figure out where something is.
 
Probe Scanner will scan the system (even if you don't have actual probes equipped) for Cosmic Signatures, Anomalies, Training Sites, Faction Warfare sites etc. Those are less advanced versions of the sites found with exploration. If you do have scan probes fitted, they will integrate to form a much more powerful scanner (see [[Probe scanning]] for more details).
