The ~~directional~~ scanner is an extremely powerful intelligence tool in PvP in all areas of space for soloists and fleet scouts alike. In fleets it is common for intel reports to be made by pasting the scanner results into an online parser (''such as [https://adashboard.info/intel Adashboard]''). These can give a Fleet Commander intelligence on enemy fleet compositions to help decide whether an engagement is worth pursuing. Directional scanning is also widely used in mining and exploring to give early warning of hostile ships and/or combat probes. Good scanning can provide the vital seconds needed to escape an incoming attack.
