In a multiplayer mode, Scouting is decent so as to discover the map faster. However, if playing against AI, there is a way to examine the uncovered lands, saving a slot for a more mighty secondary skill: save the progress and use a cheat which unveils the whole map, then return to your normal game, having remembered the most important things (i.e. location of various map objects, artifacts, enemy heroes, their force and proximity to your towns, etc.) Anyway, as the game is played, the map is often getting fully unveiled, or at least everything important for the mission is disclosed, sooner or later.
