Cell Location Map using Mozilla Location Service

This repository provides code to display the cell locations using the Mozilla Location Service. The code extracts cell data from a CSV export file and generates an interactive map with markers representing the cell locations.

Prerequisites

• Go programming language
• Access to a cell export file from the Mozilla Location Service

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://git.jlel.se/jlelse/mls.git
   

2. Change to the project directory:

   cd mls
   

Usage

Step 1: Filter Cell Data

To filter the cell data and generate an output file, run the following command:

go run ./filter/main.go <input CSV file> <output CSV file> <radio> <mcc> <network> <min samples> <output columns>

• <input CSV file>: Path to the input CSV file containing the cell data.
• <output CSV file>: Path to the output CSV file where the filtered data will be saved.
• <radio>: The desired radio type (e.g., LTE).
• <mcc>: The desired Mobile Country Code (e.g., 262 for Germany).
• <network>: The desired network code (e.g., 3 for o2-de).
• <min samples>: The minimum number of samples required for a cell to be included.
• <output columns>: Space-separated list of columns to include in the output.

Example:

go run ./filter/main.go ./MLS-full-cell-export.csv ./output.csv LTE 262 3 100 lon lat created updated cell

Step 2: Generate Map

To generate an HTML map with the filtered cell data, run the following command:

go run ./web/main.go <input CSV file> <output HTML file>

• <input CSV file>: Path to the input CSV file containing the filtered cell data with the columns lon,lat,created,updated,cell.
• <output HTML file>: Path to the output HTML file where the map will be saved.

Example:

go run ./web/main.go ./output.csv ./map.html

Acknowledgments

The code in this repository is based on the Mozilla Location Service and leverages the following open-source libraries:

• Leaflet (version 1.9.4): An open-source JavaScript library for interactive maps.
• Leaflet.markercluster (version 1.4.1): A plugin for Leaflet that provides clustering functionality for markers.

The idea for this project was inspired by the CellInspector Map.
