-===== -- Operation Steps  =====
+===== -- Method of Operation  =====
-- Go to http://www.antennesmobiles.fr/, select the antenna types, the city and copy the antenna ids (at the bottom of the page) in a text file (see for example orange-3G-rennes.csv)
+. Download or fork my repository from [[https://github.com/samerlahoud/cellular-network-map | GitHub]].
-- Go to http://www.cartoradio.fr/cartoradio/web/, select the same city and download the data (you should sign in and you will receive date by mail)
+. Launch the crawler script from your command line. The argument of the script corresponds to the postal code as in:
-- Open python antenna-coordinate-generation.py and make the necessary modifications (mainly pointing to the corresponding data files)
+  python antennes-mobiles-crawler.py 75014
-- Launch the python script and watch back!
+You should obtain a text file named ''network-map-75014.txt'' in the ''/data'' directory. This file contains information on the antennas in the selected geographical area.
+; 2G 3G 4G; BOUYGUES TELECOM; 1995-09-01; 2014-09-26; 156 R LÉON MAURICE NORDMANN; 75013; PARIS-13E--ARRONDISSEMENT; Oui;
+; 2G 3G 4G; BOUYGUES TELECOM; 2004-08-20; 2014-12-05; 22/24 R DU FAUBOURG ST JACQUES; 75014; PARIS-14E--ARRONDISSEMENT; Oui;
+The only missing information is the geographic position of the antennas. For this, you need the information from [[http://www.cartoradio.fr/cartoradio/web/|ANFR]].
+. Go to [[http://www.cartoradio.fr/cartoradio/web/|ANFR]], select the same city as previously and download the data (you should sign in and you will receive data by mail). Download the obtained data in ''data/cartoradio-75014/''.
+. Launch the coordinate generation script:
+  python antenna-coordinate-generation.py 75014 orange 4G
+  * The first argument is the postal code.
+  * The second argument is the operator name and must be chosen from: orange - free - bouygues - sfr
+  * The last argument is the network type: 2G - 3G - 4G
+. Watch back and enjoy!
+===== -- Output at a Glance =====
+The output of the previous script consists of three files:
+  * A command file ''75014_ORANGE_4G_antenna_coordinates.m'', that you can simply load in MATLAB for your simulations.
+  * A figure plot of the antenna positions ''75014-ORANGE-4G-antenna-map.png''.
+{{ :75014-orange-4g-antenna-map.png?nolink&350|}}
+  * A figure plot of the Voronoi diagram (the set of points in the geographic area closer to each antenna) ''75014-ORANGE-4G-voronoi-map.png''.
