I believe the range to be quasi-spherical. My scanner room sits at -175 -8 -75 and with all four range upgrades (500m), it fully maps the Jellyshroom cave (all within 500m at that position).

I'm now going on an expedition to add 4 scanner towers (multiroom, scanner room, hatch, locker, fabricator, water purifier, thermal plant and 4 to 6 power transmitters) in the following positions:

Kappa station: (-750,y,-750) Alpha station: (510,y,625) Mu station: (166,y,-900) Epsilon station: (-410,y,760)

The expedition goal is to have ~50% coverage of the entire map.

Requirements: ~128 titanium, 4 copper wires, 8 aerogel, 8 magnetite, 4 quartz, 40 gold, 8 table coral, 8 copper + 12 titanium and 4 copper if you add the beacons + 12 titanium and 4 lithium if you add the moth storage units (two scanning towers per trip) or you could use the cyclops and do it all in one trip.
