 Performing a survey informs the scientist about interesting phenomena that might be hidden from them in the immediate area (in a forest clearing, for example). A quick sweep with a scanner could reveal the presence of hidden minerals that can be extracted or used, or the presence of [[exotic particles]] in the atmosphere. Performing a survey informs the scientist about interesting phenomena that might be hidden from them in the immediate area (in a forest clearing, for example).

-To perform a survey, indicate you are doing so to a Referee, and inform them of any relevant Mods or similar things that might affect the result such as [[Resonant Neutrons]] applied to your Scanner. You must roleplay scanning the area, tear the Charge required or hand it to the Referee. If there is anything of interest in the area reachable by your Scanner, they will inform you in broad terms - usually including the type of phenomenon ([[Exotic substances]],​ interesting anomalies, points of information,​ etc), where it is and what kind of Science area it falls under (Etheric, Corporeal or Life). It is generally not useful to perform a Survey in the main area at an event - there are too many energy signatures and things going on that it overwhelms the Scanners processors and does not return any useful information.+To perform a survey, indicate you are doing so to a Referee, and inform them of any relevant Mods or similar things that might affect the result such as [[Resonant Neutrons]] applied to your Scanner.
