Zones allow you to specify certain regions on earth (for now). When a device tracker sees a device to be within a zone, the state will take the name from the zone. Zones can also be used as a [trigger](/getting-started/automation-trigger/#zone-trigger) or [condition](/getting-started/automation-condition/#zone-condition) inside automation setups.
Zones support the usual method to specify multiple zones, use keys `zone:`, `zone 2:` etc.
The Zone component uses YAML sequences to configure multiple zones:
```yaml
# Example configuration.yaml entry
zone:
name: School
latitude: 32.8773367
longitude: -117.2494053
radius: 250
icon: mdi:school
- name: School
latitude: 32.8773367
longitude: -117.2494053
radius: 250
icon: mdi:school
zone 2:
name: Work
latitude: 32.8753367
longitude: -117.2474053
- name: Work
latitude: 32.8753367
longitude: -117.2474053
# This will override the default home zone
zone 3:
name: Home
latitude: 32.8793367
longitude: -117.2474053
radius: 100
icon: mdi:account-multiple
# This will override the default home zone
- name: Home
latitude: 32.8793367
longitude: -117.2474053
radius: 100
icon: mdi:account-multiple
```

To find your latitude/longitude of a certain place you can use for example [Google Maps](https://www.google.nl/maps/) or [Bing Maps](https://www.bing.com/maps). Just right click and copy the coordinates from there (Bing) or click on the "What is here?" (Google)
