A processing system may obtain a map comprising a plurality of geographical objects, identify a first label of a first geographical object that identifies a first geographical object type, identify a second label of a second geographical, identify a geospatial relationship between the first and second geographical objects, and apply an input data set comprising geospatial relationship information of the first geographical object to a geospatial relationship model to obtain an output comprising a confidence factor of the first label of the first geographical object. The geospatial relationship model may be associated with the first geographical object type and is to output the confidence factor based upon the input data set. The input data set may include the geospatial relationship between the first and second geographical objects. The processing system may then apply at least one modification to the map based upon the confidence factor.

The present disclosure provides the planning of the next generation network which complements an existing telecom deployment to achieve the desired KPIs from the combined network for both macro and small cell planning in an existing network in a cost-effective method to deploy ODSC cells and Macro Cells in a heterogeneous network. Planning a next-generation network for an existing telecom operator is a large undertaking, utilizing precious man-hours and most importantly, weeks of work. Using an automated planning methodology to plan macro and small cells for a region like a city, state or even country, planners can deploy solutions to make the most optimum use of existing infrastructure. The invention proposes an automated approach to plan the preferred overlay telecom solutions in an area A being part of an existing telecom deployment.
