Is there a better way? Such as just using the map tools to calculate everything? Or is it really best to gather data during the day, then attack at night?

Want to know what I do?
I ask the watch officer for the nearest contact. It's his job to do that.
Obviously that assumes you are surfaced.
Also, at night you can get pretty close without being spotted, provided you keep a narrow profile and don't go to fast.
