EFFICIENT GENERATION AND UPDATE OF HEAT MAPS
First Claim
1. A method, on a mobile device, of updating heat map data comprising:
- obtaining, by the mobile device, first signal data for a terrestrial transceiver;
generating, by the mobile device, a transceiver heat map using the first signal data;
displaying, by the mobile device, a request to gather additional signal data for the terrestrial transceiver;
obtaining, by the mobile device, second signal data for the terrestrial transceiver;
generating, by the mobile device, an updated transceiver heat map using the second signal data; and
displaying, by the mobile device, the updated transceiver heat map.

Abstract
Methods and apparatuses are presented for generating and updating heat maps for terrestrial wireless transceivers located in an area or venue. According to some embodiments, a method may include obtaining, by a mobile device, first signal data for a terrestrial transceiver and generating, by the mobile device, a transceiver heat map using the first signal data. The method may further include displaying, by the mobile device, a request to gather additional signal data for the terrestrial transceiver and obtaining, by the mobile device, second signal data for the terrestrial transceiver. The method may further include generating, by the mobile device, an updated transceiver heat map using the second signal data and displaying, by the mobile device, the updated transceiver heat map.
