Abstract

A method and system are provided for generating a tear down report based on call-specific data obtained in a wireless network. The method includes receiving as input a Corsair Phoneprint data file including said call-specific data; feeding this data file to a thematic mapping software program; and, generating a graphical representation of the data file with the mapping software program. This embodiment can also be implemented in a system or on a computer-readable medium.

Claims

1. A method for generating a tear down report based on call-specific data obtained in a wireless network, said method comprising:

receiving as input a Corsair Phoneprint data file including said call-specific data;

feeding said data file to a thematic mapping software program; and

generating a graphical representation of said data file with said mapping software program, wherein said generating a graphical representation is performed on a periodic basis selected from the group consisting of weekly, biweekly, monthly, and quarterly.

2. A computer-readable medium containing instructions for generating a tear down report based on call-specific data obtained in a wireless network, said medium comprising:

instructions for receiving as input a Corsair Phoneprint data file including said call-specific data;

instructions for feeding said data file to a thematic mapping software program; and

instructions for generating a graphical representation of said data file with said mapping software program, wherein said instructions for generating a graphical representation are executed on a periodic basis selected from the group consisting of weekly, biweekly, monthly, and quarterly.
