I think the communications aspects are considered to fall under Charms (messenger patronus, protean charm on DA coins, unspecified charm on Marauders' Map and mirror pair, howlers, etc.) but finding water or lost things or just scrying the present in a gramerhain, clouds, or pool of water has lots of literary tradition ignored in fanfic as much as in canon. Of course, how any form of magic actually works and esp. why is largely ignored by canon, just like the overall logic deficiencies of the plot.
