The last few years has seen an unprecedented consolidation within the network infrastructures. With the forming of the EE network and the roll out of 4G (LTE). This has led to much more complex scenarios when performing network survey measurements. We have seen many examples of survey results that are ineffective due to the lack of current knowledge and expertise on the part of the surveyor.
Cell site of the week
During cell site surveys in Birmingham our senior cell site expert measured service from this cell site. An otherwise attractive building being spoilt by a messy installation!
Maybe a fake chimney stack in GRP would have been a better solution?
It has been a very busy year for the cell site analysis experts, who spend most of their time working against the clock producing urgent reports. We observed last year that timescales were becoming tighter, however this now seems to be the norm and our cell site analysis experts have come to expect each instruction as urgent and think it is a luxury if they are instructed early on a case.
The Cell Site Analysis team at Footprint Investigations would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Once again we have not sent any christmas cards out and have instead made a donation to Acorns Childrens Hopsice.

Do you feel that you are alone? May be working long hours, fed up with vast amounts of phone data. You may have a ‘Good Sense of Humour’, but communications data is getting you down. Are you the sort that likes to eat out and enjoy socialising, but unfortunately you are stuck in front of a computer for hours on end, creating call schedules? If you can relate to this so far, then you are probably a Law Enforcement Analyst or a Detective tasked to deal with mobile phone data. Do not despair…there is an alternative.
The Cell site Analysis experts from Footprint Investigations were on the road again yesterday to deliver a well-received, and hopefully useful training update.

A few years ago it was very rare to receive a phone call from the defence team asking if cell site analysis would help their case when the prosecution had not introduced this particular type of evidence.
There are numerous areas of mobile phone forensics, better known as digital forensics, including cell site analysis.
We have considered the various options available should you be required to instruct a cell site analysis expert.
