Abstract
Locations and azimuths of cells of a communication network can be estimated, determined, and validated. Cell attribute management component (CAMC) can estimate, determine, and/or validate cell locations based on analysis of timing advance (TA) measurement data and/or location data associated with devices associated with base stations associated with cells. CAMC can estimate azimuth of a cell associated with a base station based on analysis of a validated cell location of the cell and location data associated with devices associated with the cell. CAMC can determine whether a recorded azimuth of the cell is validated based on analysis of the estimated azimuth of the cell and the recorded azimuth of the cell. CAMC can tag the recorded azimuth of the cell as validated if applicable azimuth accuracy criteria is met, inaccurate if applicable azimuth criteria is not met, or omni if the cell is an omni cell.
