Greetings Spacefriends!
Is this skill really needed at level 4 or 5?? I have it at level 5 and an alt is only at level 3. I see no difference in our scans, Exactly how does the game apply each skill level to what i see? Is just the sensitivity of the scan slider affected? I feel like i wasted time training this to level 5. Thanks. |

The planetary scan show you the amount of resource you suppose there's going to be in that location, but it doesn't mean there's going to be really that amount under the surface of the planet.
The planetology skill, and advanced planetology in a larger amount, contribute in making your supposition as close as possible to the reality.
After you place your drills, you get an estimate of how much resource you are going to get, but if you check at the end of the cycle you almost never get that amount, it can be more or it can be less. Also mind the resources of the planet shift slightly over time, and that is a factor too in how much you are going to get. |

Planetology 4 opens the Advanced Planetology skill so Planetology 5 is not worth it unless you like maximizing skills. Planetology 4 + Adv Planetology 3 is a good compromise. Planetology 3 will get the job done with more variation in expected extraction rate to actual extraction rate.
I trained one alt to Planetology 5 + Adv Planetology 5 to see what would happen -- disappointment was the result. I planned to use this alt to find hidden pockets of low volume resources but found that it just created more distinctly defined edges on the heat map.
