Abstract
A system and method for homogeneously merging locations in a telecommunications network including: calculating a characteristic of a carrier at a first location and a second location; determining a penalty for excluding the carrier based in part on the characteristic; comparing the penalty determined to a preselected value; and, if the penalty is less than the preselected value, merging the first location and the second location, thereby forming a merged location.
