I always have an ADS. No marker.
No POI circle in any of the sites, included Dav's Hope, where however I had a marker popping up on my nav panel.
I think that's rather a breakthrough, but I wonder if the usage is more specific.
The external triangles in your image align exactly at column 1, row 1. I think the contents of the red triangle in that pane are the intended output for that symbol.
The other red outlines likely relate to other frames on the obelisk. (although I'm not sure whether those outlines are correct - my images weren't very legible).

Yes, someone else tracing the beacon rays!
Yesterday evening, I had a closer look at the "center" beacon, the one left to the the "prism" pyramid. The beacons have 3 slots and while the relic inside turns, the slots remain fixed. That means: if the relic lights up, it will throw rays in 3 clearly defined directions.
You can trace the directions and possible endpoints using the SRV and external camera (I brought an SLF with beams too, but ext cam proved to be more precise), on the opposite side of each slot is a triangular piece you can aim by (like a gun). I cannot say very much yet, as it was late and it took me ages to locate the ruins again (Conda has rather limited downward view...), but it was interesting still. For the "eastern" slot points somewhere at the "prism" pyramid, the "southern" slot points directly southwards and the "western" slot exactly traces the middle line of the "prism spectrum" (its clearly visible on the map, the middle one of the "outbound" rays) and up to the big northern plateau at the point where this prominent "ramp" starts (hitting the southern one of the "clamps" on the plateau).
I don't know if this will lead to much in the end, but I will continue my efforts soon if time allows and possibly draw a map afterwards, took dozens of screenshots ofc but don't have them here right now. Did you use the same approach, or are the blue rays just connections between the beacons? Note that each beacon will emit 3 different beams, and their paths are fixed and predetermined.

Ericlas, even I stopped seeing the marker last time I checked yesterday. It only briefly appeared after the initial discovery. So this whole mechanic must be a bit bugged. Also, I want to confirm that there is no blue circle POI there. Never was. I think permanent POIs do not appear as blue circles. You just have to be observant, or you can literally pass over it and just miss it.
huuuuh?

This is juest AWESOME!
Does anyone know this guy? He should put up a donate button, I'm sure in!

That looks a brilliant aid to Engineering, thank you
Arrived at second crash site.
Marker gone.
This must have been a "HELLO!!! FIND ME!!!" marker, maybe only active for an hour after the initial discovery.
Either every new discovery will have this what would be fun (for me) or it is limited to each next step in a quest that we are supposed to find, to build up a story.
(like the sole ship in the first spot and adding the UAs and SRV to tell us what happened)

I made a pic with different alignments.
Black = Triangle base lines
Red = Triangle center lines
Blue = Support structure center lines
Yellow Circles = intersections of lines from three or more objects
Pink triangles = Towers with relic
I don't know what to make of it my self. Triangles have either a horizontal center line and a vertical base line or vice versa.
Three of the triangles have lines intersecting at the top of the 'landing pad'. The last one does not.

I’ve been to the ruins, the alien crash site, and Dav’s Hope a few times each now, and I have never once seen a marker for any of them yet. But I have seen people’s pics of their markers in this thread, so I know it does happen from time to time, it just has not happened yet for me for some reason.
Yeah, I was there again last night and was disappointed to see the mining location missing, and I could not find the one in the mountains that someone else posted yesterday, so I think they are all just random POI’s. Shame, as it was only about 1km up the hillside from the abandoned base, oh well I had fun entertaining it while I believed I’d found Team 6, LOL!!!!
I still have to wonder if Frontier did put another permanent POI somewhere close to indicate their whereabouts though.
Hey cmdrs,
Here is some more brainfooder, stuff I'm working on and tinkering around with. It may help and give some more ideas.
As I state earlier, I still believe the whole site is a map. I took the map into a CAD. Took a reference measurement at the site. Distance between the centers of both round plateaus is 805 meters. Probably not worth anything right now. But I was able to draw to scale. For later dimension ratios and such.
Interesting is that both beacons closest to the bigger plateau are at the same distance as the 2 small three side pyramids. I marked it in the picture. Both ... huh ...coincident??
I hope it gives you guys and gals some more ideas. Let me know if someone needs anything specific done. I will keep tinkering around with circles and lines.

EDIT: Han_Zen is already onto it... Can't keep up with this threads frequency: 1 Page = 1 post [in a normal thread]. Not stating its abnormal in here.

I think the numbers part was understood to represent the system where Jacques ended up.
Your x-only nonogram is reasonably close to the actual system, so maybe the other axis was hidden in another message:

OT, but is there a decent pilot's log application out yet?
