Signal strength prediction based on line of sight analysis

A non-transitory machine-readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor of a device, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

• determining line of sight data representative of a line of sight between an access point device and a target site;
• determining that an obstruction exists that obstructs the line of sight;
• performing a classification procedure comprising classifying the obstruction as one of a group of obstructions comprising:
• an above-ground object and a portion of land;
• and
• determining a first signal strength prediction for the target site in response to the classification procedure classifying the obstruction as the above-ground object and determining a second signal strength prediction for the target site in response to the classification procedure classifying the obstruction as the portion of land.

A method, comprising:

• determining, by a device comprising a processor, line of sight data representative of a line of sight between an access point device and a target premises;
• in response to a determination that an obstruction exists that obstructs the line of sight, performing, by the device, a classification procedure comprising classifying the obstruction as an above-ground object or a portion of land;
• in response to the obstruction being classified as the above-ground object, determining, by the device, a first signal strength prediction for the target premises;
• and
• in response to the obstruction being classified as the portion of land, determining, by the device, a second signal strength prediction for the target premises that differs from the first signal strength prediction.
