There is two kind of Scanning for places:
Sight: use Head / Hears. This will use MYS Rating
This is used to get some information of the view of the place (This is supposed to work like in pathfinder)
You may improve this Scanning score by positioning in higher places or closer to the objects
Smell: use Nose / Mouth / Paws. This will use SML Rating
This is used to get some preliminary Herbs or Animals Information that may live in the place (note that this may not be used to reliably stalk or find a specific animal)
You may improve this Scanning score by positioning in terrains which keep smells better.
You may only perform one of them per map or object per hour.
Animals that also use their Nose / Mouth / Paws to See can choose to do both
