Understaffed scouting

[TDav540]

With a small team, it may be smart to avoid collecting a large number of repeats. Have a list of the teams you would like to collect during which matches to maximize the number of teams covered. Yes, you will miss some matches, but it's better to collect some data on every team than skip some teams that could have a vitally important mechanism.

Additionally, take pictures during your pit scouting operation. Pictures will help your scouters/drivers with recalling the specific bot, so having those available will help tremendously.

Finally, as many others have mentioned, work with other teams in the area to scout effectively. Almost every team has some sort of scouting operation, and many rookie/small teams will be understaffed. Combining resources will be like coopertition, beneficial for all simultaneously.
