I am an explorer at heart and this profession holds a great interest to me and have always been a fun part of the previous incarnations.
As we now have a whole galaxy to explore I believe it would be nice to have an Explorers tab/option on the galaxy map. The main aim would be to indicate which systems you have visited, which have been explored and which you have fully scanned. Having this available would provide information as to where to go next without duplicating un-necessary routes, jumps and scans.
Another option on the explorers map could be a slim-line galaxy view which would instead of showing all the stars only shows items of significant interest which have been discovered by the community (NGC's, Nebula, black holes etc). This would give new explorers more of an an idea of where to head to see wonders.
I hope some of these suggestions are useful. Not sure how easy they would be to implement but I think it would be a fantastic update to give to the exploring side of the community.
Kind regards.
