Find where carriers need more coverage around your sites
Screen towers and candidate parcels from your desk. See where each carrier's coverage is thin within 2 km, then send only the best sites for field study.
- Coverage share at 0.5, 1 and 2 km for each carrier
- Failed connection attempts that point to unmet demand

Screening sites without carrier data gets expensive at tower scale
Every acquisition and every build is a bet on future tenants. Most teams make that bet without a clear view of how carriers are performing.
How it usually goes
- 1Candidate sites get screened with internal models and experience.
- 2Promising ones go out for drive tests or RF studies.
- 3Each study takes time and money, and plenty of sites don't pan out.
- 4Carriers decide where to add capacity on their own schedule.
With CoverageMap
- You batch-score every tower and parcel for every carrier from your desk.
- Sites with thin coverage or failed connections rise to the top of the list.
- Drive tests and RF studies go to the sites most likely to pay off.
- Leasing conversations start with an independent view of the area.
One API call in the workflow you already have

Turn coverage gaps into lease-up opportunities
Score whole portfolios quickly
Send tower coordinates in batches of 100 and see coverage, signal and speeds for every carrier within 0.5, 1 and 2 km. The sites with the most tenant upside stand out right away.
- Carrier-by-carrier data around every site
- Coverage share at three distances
- Sites ranked by the size of the gap
- Faster, cheaper diligence
Find where networks are weakest
Scan candidate areas for weak performance and failed connections. Then focus build-to-suit projects and new acquisitions where carriers need the most help.
- Grid scans across entire markets
- Failed tests that point to unmet demand
- LTE and 5G gaps tracked separately
- Capital focused where tenants are likely
Bring an independent view to the table
Carriers have their own network data. An independent view of coverage and real-world speeds around your site is still a useful way to open the conversation and show you've done the homework.
- Side-by-side carrier comparisons
- Real-world median speeds and test counts
- Context for colocation and amendment talks
- A view from outside the carrier's own models
Track performance after deployment
Re-scan your sites as networks change. You can measure the improvement after a new tenant goes live and catch new gaps early.
- Repeatable scans you can compare over time
- Speed test data that's always being updated
- FCC coverage refreshed twice a year
- Early signs of new demand
Flag carriers with thin coverage around each site
Set the coverage share you consider well served within 2 km. Carriers below it show up as potential upside at each sample site.
3 of 6 sample sites show upside for at least one carrier.
| Location | AT&T covered, 2 km | T-Mobile covered, 2 km | Verizon covered, 2 km | Decision |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TX-0418 | 99% | 84% | 71% | Upside: Verizon |
| TX-0422 | 84% | 100% | 100% | All carriers well served |
| OK-0107 | 99% | 95% | 62% | Upside: Verizon |
| NM-0031 | 91% | 76% | 99% | All carriers well served |
| TX-0460 | 62% | 71% | 68% | Upside: AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon |
| OK-0112 | 84% | 91% | 76% | All carriers well served |

See demand around every site at three distances
Coverage share and signal at 0.5, 1 and 2 km show how well each carrier serves the area around a site. Speed tests and failed attempts show where people are actually feeling the gap.
