Claim 9:
10. A system for identifying radio access network (RAN) coverage at geographic locations, comprising:
a memory having non-transitory instructions stored; and
a processor coupled to the memory, and being configured to execute the instructions, thereby causing the apparatus to:
receive raw predictive coverage data from a radio access network (RAN);
convert the raw predictive coverage data into a grid format;
receive user-equipment (UE) key performance indicator (KPI) values from neighboring cells in the RAN;
identify a viewport based on the raw predictive coverage data and the UE KPI values, the viewport being divided into grids where each grid includes a reference point; and
superimpose on the viewport a layer of predictive coverage data and a layer of UE KPI values to obtain RAN availability by location.
