The map opens from left side main menu. | |||
In the maps tab you can see the location of already mapped base stations. The application will automatically only show the base stations of the current network being used (LTE in the picture). The location of base stations can also be viewed from the Cellmapper webmap. | |||
The base station is marked on the map as a red pin in mobile and a red arrow in a browser. A blue pin refers to your own location and the black line tells you which station you are connected to. By clicking on the base station you can see it's range as a black zone. Light green indicates best signal quality, dark green good quality, black average quality and red the weakest signal quality. | |||
On green pin's (on mobile app map have red circle) is some user's located tower. You can locate tower on web map when you have reached over 2 000 points (need account). | |||
By pressing Select Provider (Search Icon) on header you can switch the operator and network so you can inspect base stations of other networks. | |||
== Send data to server == | |||
Open left side menu and open '''Upload and Statistics'''. You should always upload your newly measured base station so that somebody else won't have to go and redo it, and they can instead view it from the map. The cellmapper map is updated nearly instantaneously . | |||

Press on the Upload icon after this and the data will be sent to the server. We recommend that you also turn on the '''Enable instant upload''' feature from the settings, so you don't have to press the button every time. | |||
