Claim:
1. A method comprising: associating a first base station identifier with a first frequency by scanning a wireless communication spectrum at a first rate with a first scanner having base station identifier decoding enabled on the first scanner; measuring a signal strength by scanning the wireless communication spectrum at a second rate with a second scanner having base station identification code decoding disabled on the second scanner, the disabling of the base station identification code decoding enables the second scanner to scan at the second rate, the second rate being higher than the first rate; determining, by executing an instruction with a processor, whether the signal strength is associated with the first frequency; and when the signal strength is associated with the first frequency, populating, by executing an instruction with the processor, a first measurement record from the second scanner with the first base station identifier in association with the signal strength.
