The method may also include receiving data demand information for the area having the identified one or more wireless coverage issues. In addition, the method may include receiving or determining a total cost of ownership. The total cost of ownership may include a cost of fixing the one or more wireless coverage issues within the area. Further, the method may include calculating a venue value index of the area based on at least one of the total cost of ownership, the data demand information, or an average spectrum efficiency. The method may in addition include performing at least one network administrative task based on the venue value index.
