Realism: area scanned

[DanielVF]

Thanks for the plugin!

For a dash more realism, the size of the area scanned could change based on the size of body (a single scan will cover a greater % of the Mun's surface area than the earth's) and how near the craft is to the pole (since the ground size of a lat/lon changes towards the poles. Easy to see when you do a polar view).

I think you'd be able to keep your existing bitmap for the scanned area, just mark off a few adjacent "pixels" as scanned.

Body radius would affect the both width and height of the scanned area marked off. Polar nearness would only affect the width.
