1. A system, comprising:
- a processor; and
a memory having computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising;
preparing a basic route from a route origin to a route destination, wherein preparing the basic route comprises;
preparing a strict route including a path of the basic route; and
preparing extra map data adjacent the strict route to accommodate potential re-routing in an event of a detour from the strict route by a mobile communications device using the basic route; and
obtaining information regarding a characteristic of a wireless communications network along the basic route.

Abstract
A system for providing a tailored route to a mobile communications device over a wireless communications network. The system includes a map server including a processor and a memory storing instructions executable by the processor to make the map server operable to prepare a basic route from a route origin to a route destination and obtain information regarding characteristics of the wireless communications network along the basic route. The processor is further made operable to prepare the tailored route using the basic route and the network characteristics information and provide the tailored route to the mobile communications device over the wireless communications network.
