### 🌐 Step 1: Understand Area Types

- Go to the **Areas** tool (or press **D**)
- You’ll see:
  
    - **Heatmap Area** – used for coverage calculations; clipped to available clutter data
    - **Analysis Areas** – user-defined zones for targeted reporting (e.g., General, High Demand)

---

### ✏️ Step 2: Add and Draw Analysis Areas

1. Create a new **Area Type** (e.g., “General” or “High Demand”)
2. Click to draw the shape on the map
   
     - Hold **Shift** to close the shape
3. Repeat to define multiple area types

---

### 📊 Step 3: Analyze Area-Based Stats

- Go to **Summary \> Coverage**
- Select one or multiple areas to view:
  
    - Individual or combined coverage metrics
    - Demand-based insights

---

### 📁 Step 4: Import or Export KML/KMZ Files

- You can:
  
    - **Export** your areas as **KML**
    - **Import** from existing **KML/KMZ** datasets to define areas

---

### 📍 Step 5: Add and Customize Pins

- Import pin data into your project
- Customize pins by:
  
    - **Color**
    - **Placement**
- Useful for denoting key reference points
