How to Use Exploration Data for Engineers - A Guide for the Returning Explorer

[Thunderstruck]

what are you aiming for exactly?

- a third party tool like DSS can record the systems you jump to, as well as the returns of discovery scans (honks as well as discovery scans)l
- those are also available in the commanders log journal, for a detailed record of what contains, see here: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/275151-Commanders-log-manual-and-data-sample ... you can access those log entries directly.
- third party tools can record your profit from exploration data, when you hand it in
- as that profit is depending on whether it is a first discovery for exampel, a server request is needed to calculate it, which is why you don't have that stored anywhere before that server request (besides, obviously, on FDEVs servers).

Thanks for the information, your reply and patience!
I have been circumnavigating the galaxy and will be completing it soon, so I thought it would be good to have a record of the systems visited and first discovered.
It would be good if the data being sold and all the details shown could be copied to a local folder at the same time.
Is there a thirdparty tool that can do this?

as said, i think ed discovery does exactly that.

Thanks again, I will give it a try.

Note that EDDiscovery relies on reading the journal files (only introduced mid- to late- last year), although you *can* import the older style netlogs.

So if you didn't have netlogs enabled (which was a *manual* operation), there's every chance you might not have any "record" of where you've been and what you've found.

Other than that, it's an invaluable tool

Hi, eddiscovery seems to work ok and has recovered over 23,700 systems going back to May 2016!
I already had a login at edsm so it did a sync with no problem other than it took a long while.

Thanks to geoman and mpfj for their help.

On that picture what does "terr." mean?
