Intro/ObjectivesFind a location for a new cell
tower in the Seattle areaIncrease service in areas with
less coverageCreate better access through
higher elevationsFind the most suitable location
based on land features

Data AnalysisMerge non-build areas to create a
single layerCreate 5 miles buffer around
existing cell towersLocate area to build new cell
tower and examine existing buildings/parcels

Results/ConclusionFound the best location for a new
cell towerIncreased cell coverage in the
cityAvoided areas that were unable
to build on
