Abstract

A server includes a network interface to interface with mobile computing devices operating within a geographical area, with one of the mobile computing devices providing a request for navigation instructions within the defined geographical area. A geo-connectivity analyzer receives cellular network connectivity metrics for the geographical area, with the cellular network connectivity metric values varying within the geographical area. A network connectivity map is generated by the geo-connectivity analyzer based on the varying cellular network connectivity metrics. The network connectivity map includes areas with strong cellular network connectivity metric values and areas with weak cellular network connectivity metric values. A navigation analyzer generates the navigation instructions between the two geo-locations based on the network connectivity map, with the navigation instructions providing a route that is optimized to include the areas with the strong cellular network connectivity metric values.
