A scanner designed by Thatcher Steel to analyse underground areas prior to mining excavations.

When activated, you scan a point within Range to detect the presence of any underground structures, cave networks, ruins, or bases. This can be a specific terrain feature or location such as a mountain range, military complex, settlement, or area in the landscape. If a point is not worth scanning because it holds nothing of interest, the Mediator must tell you before you make your scan.

The scan returns a basic datamap of the underground area, including its size as well as the first three main sections as well as any passageways between those sections. The Mediator will draw you a rudimentary map noting any major features such as bridges, columns, or crevasses, and lets you know if the area can fit Mechs or Pilots.
