Overhead?
 
I went to that site of Tools for ... Filmmakers or something, and they had storyboards pictures, one of them is this one:

What does that Overhead mean?

Overhead schematic of your lights or set up
 
I believe the design you have linked can be used like this.

You draw your composition on the right most square, then on the left: smaller square you can draft an overhead schematic of your...

light set-up
blocking
camera placement
etc.

This sort of plot is also well utilized in the very powerful frameforge 3d software.

All the Best

Thanks, that makes sense.
Should come in handy.
