I've been playing with 3D Tools, thinking about a Galactic Map by sector.

This is the Pleiades Area with the large sectors removed:

I used a Black Sphere for the Pleiades Sector and cuboids for all other sectors for now.
I wouldn't mind seeing a point plotter tool to prove the shape of the smaller sectors or regions.
The opacity increases for smaller areas.

Here we have:
- Mel 22 Sector - Cyan
- Hyades Sector - Purple
- Taurus Dark Region - Brown
- Hind Sector - Yellow
- Arietis Sector - Green
- Aries Dark Region - Red
- Struve's Lost Sector - Dark Red

second that, maybe we should breakdwon in cubes 10x10x10LY so each can be assigned to single Cdr. - reduces overlapping
 
*** preliminary INTERNAL follow-up report - Part 2***

here are the logs for Pleiades KM-W d1-40 B11 for the rest of testing - interesting aren´t they ? Lookat the developement of spawn-rates :) I think its quite possible that "special" spawns like convoi, emergency, UP (maybe UA too?) are placed in system opn arrival and primary ADS-scan. Would explain why after returning spawn rate again for one hour is up to 11 spawns per hour spent in SC

well, HeinzE tested it and also after 10 minutes had his first UP. I got three today :) so it seems to work, at least in getting better chances by sheer spawn-rate
the two times after new entry in system for the first 45 minutes / 1 hour I had a spawn rate of more then 11 spawns per hour in SC (of course material collection and other actions in SL add to game-time)

Well I've had terrible luck with UPs. I'll give it a go. If it works for me it'll work for anyone.

just stick literally to the description - the RNG (which type of spawn U get) U can´t influence... but U can see by my todays protocols, within the first 30 minutes SC time (and only this counts as only here spawns occur) I had 2 UPs already..
But use the version I post on main threat, I ll add optimum distance calc for some know UP planets too (for the lazy ones ;) )

The Pleiades Survey Project needs your help, CMDR!

  1. If you've scanned any bodies, select them and grab screenshots of the information tabs about them. You'll probably need to scroll down and grab screenshots of the lower pages too.

Cmdr Keybuk, do you want sreenshots of the moons as well?
 
Dear fellow Cdrs.,

I am reporting off duty here for some days, first of all II have to go for Home-port (repairs, refit etc.) and
second I d like to spend some time on the sound data I collected....
Though U might see me online, I´ll be busy with other stuff :)
See U next week,

fly safe,
RandolfK
 
The spreadsheet is pretty comprehensive out to about 45LY now:
7364 Systems, >10% with distances now, all known objects of interest noted.

General interest seems pretty low though, if that's the case I'll move on to other things.
 
Dear Cdrs.,
reporting back to duty. Starting at the "south pole" 150LY down from Merope. So MadDog, You´ll get enough to do the next days, first 2 systems already in box (1/2 h ago :) )

Btw: re-activated and pimped my T6 "EDH Greasebucket3". Much more convenient for such activity. And with (FSA2) ~34LY Jump not bad for an old truck...

Fair enough - I'll keep an eye out for any images Keybuk forwards to me.
In the meantime - enjoy this interactive map of the sector: https://plot.ly/~mike.platt/3/

I'll get around to adding the named and cataloged systems at some point.
 
Thanks to everyone who's submitted so far; still working my way through them. Had a broken motherboard that needed replacing, so fell behind a little.

MadDogMurdock: there's a few more nav screens coming your way today.
 
@MadDogMurdock (or anybody else who can answer) do U know if (and how) it is possible to change displayed language (if new installation / download needed, NOPE thanks)? Want to make things easier for You with my screenshots ;)

I've never had reason to try, but just checked and there is an option to select language in the launcher. In the Options drop down.
