1. A computer-implemented method to estimate a location of a base station comprising:

  • determining which signals are transmitted from a first base station by;

    identifying a first set of signals having a first signal identifier;

    identifying a first signal in the first set of signals having a first relative highest signal quality value;

    identifying a first location associated with the first signal;

    identifying a second set of signals having a second signal identifier;

    identifying a second signal in the second set of signals having a second relative highest signal quality value;

    identifying a second location associated with the second signal;

    determining a first distance between the first location and the second location;

    comparing the first distance to a first threshold distance; and

    associating the first signal and the second signal with the first base station when the first distance satisfies the first threshold distance; and

    estimating a location of the first base station based on at least one of the first location or the second location.
