Add or move Sensors

Add, delete or change locations of Wildfire Sensors.

After a path or area has been drawn, a sensor may have been placed in a location free of trees or perhaps in a location where a sensor cannot be deployed, such as on a building.

Wildfire Sensors can be added to areas or paths.

Any customization of an area or path overwrites the default placement of sensors.
