Claim:
1. A method to associate base-station signal records with base stations, the method comprising: aggregating, by executing a first instruction with a processor, retrieved base-station signal records based on signal identifiers and geographic locations; and differentiating, by executing a second instruction with the processor, the aggregated signal records to prevent errors caused by base-station signal reuse by assigning a first reuse identifier to a first one of the base-station signal records and a second reuse identifier to a second one of the base-station signal records when (1) the first and second ones of the base-station signal records exhibit a same signal identifier and (2) a distance between a first location associated with the first one of the base-station signal records and a second location associated with the second one of the base-station signal records satisfies a threshold.
