Radio mapping<ref>Also referred to as '''Service Area FRS/GMRS Radio Voice Quality Survey''', but we truncate to "radio mapping" to keep it simple and save money on digital ink.</ref> is the process of creating a visual representation of radio signal strengths and coverage areas across specific geographic locations. A radio map highlights areas with strong, weak, or no signal, helping organizations understand coverage patterns, identify dead zones, and optimize communication infrastructure.
