How to complete Industrial Survey quest

[Takka-Tukka-Ultra]

I am at this quest and did everything as described.
1. I bought the survey device upgrade
2. I installed the survey device upgrade to my multitool
3. I found and analysed a power hotspot. (class B)
4. I placed an electromagnetic generator on the spot and connected it to my base

But this quest is still unfinished and I don't know what I need to do next.

NEXT uninstall the game and boom quest finished

Try tagging it with E, see if that fixes the issue.

I also marked the hotspot with E. But that did not help.

You mean like you lied about doing?

Try restarting the game and identify the hotspot again. Maybe that'll help.

I had the same, here the solution:

While in survey mode, go to exactly the source of the hotspot (you see how far away you are, try to go within 5u) and a analyse "loading" will start (like a scan). After this is done, press E.

If it doesn`t work with the power hotspot, find a gas hotspot and do it again.

I needed to find a gas hotspot. Now the quest is completed. Thanks for the help.

I found a gas hotspot, but the quest is still not complete. Any ideas?

I found this question 2 years later. I was able to finish the quest by also finding and analyzing a mineral deposit and gas deposit. Good luck all!

Just had this issue and the "find all three" worked for me BECAUSE apparently it is connected to the second secondary mission, "documenting the infinity." The main mission created one or more side missions for each step.

Industrial Surveying, mission problem - SOLUTION/Fix
You need to have the right visor installed to be able to locate different hotspots. Looking through the visor, instead of just using it to scan local wildlife, plants and rocks, you can cycle through different options (on PC, use number 3 to cycle, while holding F)

I used the visor to locate a 'Power Hotspot'.
I set up a base computer, built the Electromagnetic generator, and connected it to a battery.
- But the generator still said 'Not connected' and the mission wouldn't complete.
So I built an underwater round circle base chamber around it, which then showed on the generator as 'Connected' (I didn't need to build a door. I could still access the generator through the chamber wall).
- But the mission still wouldn't complete.
So I searched again using the visor for a mineral deposit hotspot.
I located this, analysed the hotspot and once this completed then the mission was finished and completed.
