Remote Scanning Outposts are required to send hourly reports of all activities to the habitable planets in the system. They are also required to sound the alarm should they detect any suspicous activity in slipspace. As a sort of "lookout" system, these outposts took newfound importance after the information they transmit proved critical in countering the Covenant invasion of [[Sigma Octanus IV]] during [[The Battle of Sigma Octanus IV]]. After this struggle, [[HIGHCOM]] moved some of its best officers from core installations such as [[Fort York]] into Remote Scanning Outposts. Once again, the information an outpost provided prevented the UNSC from being caught completely off guard at [[The Battle of Reach]].
