Abstract

There is provided a method of analyzing data collected in a cellular network and system thereof. The method comprises: repeatedly processing a first subset of the collected data to geo-locate mobile devices, thereby giving rise to geo-location data informative of geo-located mobile devices and associated time-stamped geo-locations thereof, wherein geo-locating is provided with the help of a geo-locating transformation function generated by unsupervised learning, by the processor, of a second subset of the collected data. The method further comprises processing the geo-location data to obtain time-stamped track points, each track point is associated with a respective mobile device and is characterized by geo-location, azimuth and velocity; storing the obtained track points in association with data indicative of respective mobile devices and time-stamps, thereby generating a geo-location database; and processing the geo-location database, to obtain one or more metrics of the cellular network as a function of, at least, respective geo-coordinates.
