Coverage planning

Use the Planning tool to quickly generate an estimation of the number and type of Silvanet devices needed to cover a Site.

The Site Management app provides a Planning tool for rapidly estimating the number and placement of Silvanet devices to provide fire-detection coverage for a Site, .

You can begin by importing KMZ, KMZ and Shapefiles into the Planning tool, then create high Sensor density Paths, lower Sensor density Areas and Connectivity zones called Connectivity Meshes.

Once completed, export the plan as a document (.docx) and release it as a set if Packages to the Deployment app for deploying the Silvanet devices in the Site.

Import KML, KMZ and Shapefiles

Build a plan in a third-party tool and import KML, KMZ and Shapefiles into the Planning tool.

High density paths

Learn how to add paths that typically have a high density of Wildfire Sensors.

Low density areas

Learn how to add areas that are parts of a Site that typically have a lower density of Wildfire Sensors.

Connectivity zones

Learn how to place Border Gateways and Mesh Gateways in a Site to ensure connectivity between the Wildfire Sensors and the Silvanet Cloud.

Add or move Sensors

Add, delete or change locations of Wildfire Sensors.

Export plan

After building the deployment plan, export it as a document and release it to the Deployment app.
