Abstract

A method of storing data indicating a property of a communications network includes obtaining a data item associated with at least part of a spatial region and having an associated spatial parameter and an associated temporal parameter, the stored data item indicating a property of the communications network. The method also includes receiving second data indicating a property of said communications network at a particular location in said spatial region at a particular time. The method further includes processing said spatial parameter, said temporal parameter, data indicating said particular location and data indicating said particular time and, based upon said processing, generating first and second sub-data items, each of said first and second sub-data items having an associated spatial parameter and an associated temporal parameter, at least one of the first and second sub-data items having a spatial or temporal parameter different from that associated with the stored data item.
