  2. [Optional] - Add priority to the zone (this will be considered on the task allocation level)

Note
If priority levels are set, the system will use them when the vehicle is sent to that type of zone, sending the vehicle to the specific zone of that type with the highest priority level (with 5 being the maximum value).
  1. Click on any empty point of the map (avoiding obstacles)
  1. The zone will be created at the clicked point with dimensions defined by the sum of the zone safety parameters and vehicle category dimensions.
Note
The clicked point needs to be with enough distance to any obstacle on the map in order to create the zone correctly.
