The zonerect is just a ratio between the in game x, y coordinates to the map images x, y pixel coordinates so that the game knows where to put the red dot as you move around

i also use it on the website to calculate where to place the different points of interest when someone submits one on the website.

Hopefully that explains it, if not let me know what isnt clear and i will be happy to go into more detail about it.
