contents Given a rectangular grid graph with a special vertex at a corner called base station, we study the problem of covering the vertices of the entire graph with tours that start and end at the base station and whose lengths do not exceed a given threshold, while minimizing a quality measure. We consider two objective functions: minimizing the number of tours and minimizing the sum of their lengths. We present an algorithm that computes the optimal solution for both objectives in linear time with respect to the grid size.
