Abstract
Disclosed are exemplary embodiments of systems and methods for use in assigning locations to network records. One exemplary system includes a processor coupled to a data structure including network records, each record including a network node identifier and a boundary identifier. The processor is configured to, for each boundary identifier, access each of the network records including the boundary identifier. The accessed records include reference and target network records. Each reference network record includes location data indicative of a location of the network node identified in the reference record within the boundary. The processor is configured to determine an aggregate location as a median of the location data for the network nodes identified in the reference network records and assign the aggregate location to each of the target network records as location data indicative of the location of each network node identified in the target records within the boundary.
