A method and system for comparing network configuration data stored in a wireless communication network with parameters that depend on the physical configuration of the network is provided. Subscriber wireless communication devices operating in the network provide measurement data. From the measurement data, at least one first parameter is selected or derived, the first parameter depending on the physical configuration of the network. From network configuration data stored in the wireless communication network, at least one second parameter that corresponds to the at least one first parameter is selected. Any discrepancy between the values of the first and second parameters is then identified. Analysis of the discrepancies may reveal errors or omissions in the stored network configuration data, such as missing entries in the neighbors table for a cell site. Faults in the physical network may also be revealed.
