Description

The FBI has a need to analyze communications data to support their investigations. The FBI seeks a one suite solution which can ingest data from any cell provider into a stand-alone platform and combine the data with cell tower information. The solution must Illustrate the active cell tower azimuth. The solution must be able to collect radio frequency signal strength, ingest other geo-location information from other sources, such as google, and integrate this data with the cellular call detail records.

Background
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is seeking a comprehensive solution to analyze communications data that supports their investigative efforts. The goal is to develop a 'one suite solution' capable of ingesting data from various cell providers into a stand-alone platform, integrating this data with cell tower information to enhance the FBI's operational capabilities.

Work Details
The solution must meet the following requirements:
- Ingest and illustrate combined data from call detail records and cell tower information on a mapping platform, including active sector visualization.
- Collect radio frequency signal strength across a range of 10 MHz to 8.5 GHz and 17 GHz to 53 GHz from cellular providers and Wi-Fi, capable of performing drive tests or cellular network surveys.
- Simultaneously measure all broadcast channels from various technologies (GSM, UMTS, LTE, NR, CDMA, EVDO & Wi-Fi) within 2-3 seconds, both indoors and outdoors.
- Illustrate both the strongest and possible signal strength for call completion.
- Upload drive test data from the collection device to a central server while leaving a breadcrumb trail of the user's route.
- Provide analytics on communications data such as identifying 'hot towers' and common numbers across locations.
- Interact with other commercial databases like Whooster, CP Clear, or Accurint.
