The Radio Coverage Contour Generator processes radio signal data and produces polygonal representations of coverage areas. It supports generating contours for:
- Individual radios
- Combined radio networks
The workflow is the same in both cases.
Using a marching squares algorithm, the system converts rasterized coverage data into vector polygons that clearly define:
- Areas with coverage
- Areas without coverage
The polygon lines are drawn at a specified received signal level threshold for the currently selected Radio/RadioNet.

| Simplify | bool | Toggles simplification that controls how detailed the polygon shapes are. |

| MinPolygonAreaWithCoverage | double | Minimum size for coverage areas

Working with Coverage Contours (API)
This section describes how to add, retrieve, update, and remove coverage polygons for both individual radios and combined radio networks.
Calculating and handling contour lines are contolled via the interface IMariaRadioPlanLayer.IRadioPlanCoverageContours.
