Will the commander and survey officer give (survey) bonuses to the individual ships ?
My understanding is "In principle, yes (as long as they're in the same system, on a colony or Flag Bridge)." In practice, I've never found it to be worth it - the logistics overhead of arranging for the commands staff to be in the system is too large. Since I'm usually only surveying with at most 3-4 WS, the commander would have to have a pretty big honking bonus (e.g. 40%-ish) to make it worth it.
