# Coverage planning

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.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.dryad.app/dryad-documentation/site-planning/coverage-estimation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
