Claim One:
1. A method to monitor roadway infrastructure based on aggregated mobile vehicle communication parameters, the method comprising: identifying a target infrastructure to monitor; identifying a pair of mobile communication devices that approach the target infrastructure; instructing the pair of mobile communication devices to communicate with each other through one or more signals as the pair of mobile communication devices pass the target infrastructure; instructing at least one mobile communication device of the pair of mobile communication devices to collect information about the one or more signals; receiving the collected information about the one or more signals from the at least one mobile communication device of the pair of mobile communication devices; analyzing the collected information about the one or more signals to determine a structural characteristic of the target infrastructure; instructing a result of the analysis to be provided to a tomographic data builder, wherein the provided result of the analysis is usable to assemble a tomographic model; and assembling the tomographic model of the target infrastructure based on the analyzed information about the one or more signals, wherein assembling the tomographic model comprises extracting, from the analyzed information about the one or more signals, channel state data that represent propagation conditions of the one or more signals through the target infrastructure.
