Brian,
Any tips on turning radiomobile coverage overlays into shape files?
I've been playing with some open source tools and have made a little
progress, but haven't had time to refine the technique yet. I think if
ISPs could produce shape files more easily, the response would be much
greater. For our state program (Utah), we gave them gps coords for
each subscriber, which they used to extrapolate approximate area. I
know they also accepted radiomobile graphic overlays and converted them
for some ISP's. Of course they have millions of dollars to spend on
such projects... I was disappointed with how few did submit this round.

I have been thinking that I should do another update to the WISP
National Map. I would really love to improve the quality of the
coverage area this time. The thought is to have each WISP who
participated in their respective state broadband mapping initiative
request a copy of the shape file for their network. If everyone sent
that information to me I could use that to create a better nationwide map.
Thoughts, ideas, complaints?
