I put a satellite in polar orbit and used the big scanner to scan the planet (technically a moon) for ore.

Now I have a green overlay on the planet making it difficult to determine landing location. Is there any way to toggle this on and off?

It turns out you can right click the Survey Scanner part to toggle the overlay on or off. You can also do other cool things with it.
