Database cleanup

• Clean measurements where LAC and CELLID has the value 2147483647
• Clean measurements where the position Latitude/Longitude is in example ~50 km (bigger as the maximal allowed value timing advance for the technology) outside the polygon from the country

(in example in france is a measurement from the german provider O2 100 km from the frontier germany)

• Clean measurements where the position latitude/longitude is in example ~50 km (bigger as the maximal allowed value timing advance for the technology)

away from the real position from the base station

Other

• Import CID from gyokovsolutions as LCID

File:Cellid.pdf

• The maps from openstreetmap are old maps. A actually map would be very nice.
• If the cellid is not found at opencellid start a search to Mozilla Location Service, if the cellid is there in the database and show these results on the map

https://mozilla-ichnaea.readthedocs.org/en/latest/api/search.html

• Add webfrontend to add description from the cell to the database for people where want to add the data.

Default OpenStreetMap layer does not contain cell towers

The default OpenStreetMap layer does not contain cell towers. opencellid.org should use the human layer, which will contain communication towers. Jidanni (talk) 17:52, 8 March 2015 (CET)

Offer combining xAAAA etc. numbered towers

Several phone apps already have the ability to combine cells numbered e.g., 28888 38888 48888 into a single x8888 location when displaying them on a map. Remember to ignore the LAC in such cases, as 2G and 3G would share the same final digits. This is just one example of several numbering combining styles that could be offered. http://people.csail.mit.edu/bkph/cellular_repeater_numerology.shtml Jidanni (talk) 18:00, 8 March 2015 (CET)
