The question is, Does it take a bit of time (5+ days) to update your exploration data in EDSM? here's the reason for the question.
I recently returned to Colonia from a small trip. I found an area with a bunch of Helium-Rich Gas Giants so I began surveying the area. I visited around 300 systems in the area and found quite a few HRGG's. I didn't upload any of my data from EDD to EDSM until I returned to Colonia last Wednesday. Not because I'm paranoid about someone stealing my discoveries I just don't run EDD all the time when I play so I tend to just do batch uploads every so often. Anyways, None of the HRGG's I discovered are showing up in my exploration data on EDSM. When I look at my HRGG's it says I have 32 first discovered. While I didn't keep a good record I must have found 70+ in this region and those 32 are all prior discoveries anyways.
All of my other data in EDSM appears current such as assets, number of scanned systems and my exploration income. My flight log has all of the systems I visited during the survey listed but when I check them they list no bodies. I'm not terribly well versed with how EDSM collates all the data that is uploaded to it. I'm just being impatient and just want to know how many HRGG's I actually found during that survey. The real lesson here is I should keep my own records when I do something like this!
