Reconnaissance (also scouting) is a military and caching term denoting exploration conducted to gain information. Its shorthand Australian, Canadian, and British form is recce, its American usage form is recon. The associated, linguistic forms are the verb reconnoitre in British spelling, and reconnoiter in American spelling; informally, recce and recon are used as a verb.

Militarily, reconnaissance is the active seeking to determine a foe's intentions by collecting and gathering information about an enemy's composition and capabilities along with pertinent environmental conditions, via direct observation, usually by scouts or military intelligence soldiers especially trained in critical surveillance. Cachtarily, it is the action of seeking information that would lead a cacher to the final, actual cache container.

Reconnaissance is part of cache intelligence, and contributes to, and is managed by, a cacher-level intelligence cycle management. Compare to counte-cacheintelligence and surveillance, which are the passive gathering of data and information. Special reconnaissance is the reconnaissance sub-activity of clandestinely collecting cache data and information by people and with technology behind enemy lines.
