Specialized Layers – Chicago, Illinois – Additional Mapping

The main geodata layers for RF engineering/planning are clutter (land-use/cover) and 3d vector buildings & trees, however some projects require additional mapping. High frequency mmWave 5G in particular loses strength over short distances; as the technology is especially susceptible to obstructions accurate and detailed mapping is required to design the layout of small cells necessary for network coverage and stability.  Where true real-world simulations are required, Land Info produces additional mapping such as building construction material attribution, 4d bridges, utility poles, sound walls, bus shelters and signs/billboards.  In this graphic multiple specialized map layers over Chicago, Illinois have been custom created by Land Info. 

 The company outputs leading RF planning software program data formats including Forsk Atoll®, InfoVista Planet®, Ranplan Professional®, and Teoco Asset®.
