1. A system for identifying and efficiently navigating to a customer in a geographic area comprising:
- a computing device includinga display,at least one memory including a local memory located within the computing device, wherein the local memory pre-loads into a cache geographic data for displaying a selected geographic area, technical infrastructure data for displaying a technical infrastructure within the selected geographic area, and a listing of identifiers of specific customers located within the selected geographic area, anda processor coupled to the display and the at least one memory via a system bus, the at least one memory storing instructions for execution on the processor, the instructions configured to cause the processor to;
load map data and customer data from a remote database;
filter the loaded map data and the customer data using filter parameters;
determine an absence of a connection between the computing device and a wireless network;
in response to determining the absence, prevent the computing device from attempting to connect to any wireless network and generate a prospect map based on the loaded map data displaying;
the selected geographic area, based on the cached geographic data;
the technical infrastructure comprising network infrastructure required to support a telecommunication service within the selected geographic area, based on the cached technical infrastructure data;
at least one identifier of at least one specific customer located within the selected geographic area, based on the cached listing of identifiers, wherein at least one specific customer requires access to the technical infrastructure in order to receive the service, and wherein the at least one specific customer is displayed in accordance with a first prospect criteria;
generate a prospect detail window overlaid on the prospect map on the display;
wherein the at least one identifier is selectable, the prospect detail window being displayed when a user selects the selectable identifier, andwherein the prospect detail window comprises a listing of at least one tenant located at a location of at least one identifier of at least one specific customer and one or more additional information about the at least one tenant.
