System and methods for anonymous crowdsourcing of network condition measurements

A method for communicating with a communication device, the method comprising:

• receiving an operational framework via a first communication network, the operational framework defining a plurality of parameters;
• determining network information corresponding to a second communication network;
• determining contextual information corresponding to the communication device, wherein the network information and the contextual information are determined based on the plurality of parameters;
• and
• providing the determined network information and the determined contextual information to a service provider of the communication device.
