                Abstract: 
                This paper tends to mainly target two different types of swarming behaviour in a 2D environment, namely
area coverage and goal searching within an environment occupied with obstacles. For such behaviours, we
introduce a roadmap (a tree) customized to behave well in multi-agent scenarios. We consider a variety of
situations and environments, and explain how the method we have proposed comes into operation under
such circumstances. A comparison is, also, made with respect to multiple query roadmaps.
