//! Farming cluster plotter
//!
//! Plotter is responsible for plotting sectors in response to farmer requests.
//!
//! This module exposes some data structures for NATS communication, custom plotter
//! implementation designed to work with cluster plotter and a service function to drive the backend
//! part of the plotter.
