How to unlock the Scanning complete achievement in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl - Definitive Guide
At first I was confused on what was classified as a scanner, but after finding a couple I ran across a forum post detailing the 10 locations. My understanding is you have to activate each scanner and then obtain the artifact from it.
Here is the interactive map (not fully complete, screenshots below will be more accurate) to help with the below locations: https://mapgenie.io/stalker-2-heart-of-chornobyl/maps/the-zo...
Here are the locations (EDIT: attached screenshots for each location):
Artifact-Region-Location
Whirlwind-Garbage-In the field directly north of Depot and west of Flea Market. https://imgur.com/a/rose06u
Ciliate-Zaton-In the sewers located in eastern part of Hydrodynamics Lab. https://imgur.com/a/JZdleID
Crown-Swamps-On the island in the westernmost part of the region. https://imgur.com/a/SbVGOjo
Lantern-Cooling Towers-On top of the crane east of SKD Assembly Unit. https://imgur.com/a/cskprDf
Petal-Chemical Plant-On the roof of the transformer building. Can be interacted with only at night! (To further clarify based on Wibbleboy's comment, it needs to be between 00:00 and 04:00 give or take. Open up you PDA and current time will display on the top right).https://imgur.com/a/4pGWZbK
Dead Sponge-Rostok-Inside the building with broken roof visible on the map, directly east of a PDA location. Should be activated by nearby NPC! If he is not there, then try to load older save, as he might be bugged. https://imgur.com/a/yAQAo2r
Magma-Burnt Forest-In the center of Burning Rift location. https://imgur.com/a/SyGiSej
Devil's Mushroom-Yaniv-Southwestern corner of the region (still red forest, but part of Yaniv region on the map), directly north of Beryl-5M armor suit location (around 100m). https://mapgenie.io/stalker-2-heart-of-chornobyl/maps/the-zo...

I originally thought that this one was glitched for me, since I'd double-checked that I'd visited all 10 locations using various guides. However, I'd not realised that for the Chemical Plant scanner you need to visit at night (I did it between midnight and 2AM), if you visit during the day then the scanner will be inactive and look like you've already collected it.

Scanner at the location "Sprout".
Many people have a softlock with this scanner. The point is that if you accidentally run 100-200 meters from the building where the stalker-NPC is supposed to start the scanner, then its trigger will work, and then the scanner cannot be started and the trigger will not work if you come after.
Advice . Either on your first trip to Rostock, run straight after this scanner intentionally, or, as I was lucky, you'll have to roll back to a very late save and collect all the scanners again. (I collected the scanners before the end point at the end of the game, I had to roll back to the beginning of the game)
Another very important note that everyone is keeping quiet about. The achievement is only given if you definitely kill all the spawned NPC mobs after picking up the artifact from the scanner.
