Boundary delineation system

A method comprising:

• providing a first living unit identifier to a geographic convertor, the first living unit identifier identifying a first living unit located within a distribution area serviced by a land-line distribution service;
• delineating a first closed plane figure that bounds a first geographic location point received from the geographic converter in response to the providing of the first living unit identifier, the delineating based on a plurality of geographic location points surrounding the first geographic location point, each of the plurality of geographic location points associated with a respective living unit identifier different from the first living unit identifier, wherein the first closed plane figure is a first Thiessen polygon;
• delineating a second closed plane figure that bounds a second geographic location point, the second geographic location point associated with a second living unit identifier identifying a second living unit located within the distribution area;
• and
• merging, with a processor, the first closed plane figure and the second closed plane figure to create a distribution area figure of the distribution area serviced by the land-line distribution service, the merging occurring when the first living unit and the second living unit are serviced by a same cross-box.

A tangible machine-readable medium comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• translating a first living unit identifier associated with a first living unit into a first geographic location point, the first geographic location point being within a distribution area serviced by a telecommunications services provider;
• delineating a first closed plane figure that bounds the first geographic location point based on a plurality of geographic location points surrounding the first geographic location point, each of the plurality of geographic location points associated with a respective living unit identifier, wherein the first closed plane figure is a first Thiessen polygon;
• delineating a second closed plane figure that bounds a second geographic location point, the second geographic location point associated with a second living unit identifier associated with a second living unit within the distribution area;
• and
• creating a distribution area figure representing the distribution area serviced by the telecommunications services provider by joining the first closed plane figure and the second closed plane figure when the first living unit and the second living unit are serviced by a same cross-box.

A tangible machine-readable medium comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• delineating a first closed plane figure that bounds a first geographic location point within a distribution area serviced by a telecommunications service, the first geographic location point corresponding to a first living unit, the delineating based on a plurality of geographic location points surrounding the first geographic location point, the plurality of geographic location points associated with respective living units, wherein the first closed plane figure is a first Thiessen polygon;
• delineating a second closed plane figure that bounds a second geographic location point, the second geographic location point associated with a second living unit located within the distribution area;
• and
• merging the first closed plane figure and the second closed plane figure to create a distribution area figure of the distribution area serviced by the telecommunications service, the merging occurring when the first living unit and the second living unit receive the telecommunications service from a same cross-box.

A system comprising:

• a graphic convertor to provide a first living unit identifier to a geographic convertor and receive a first geographic location point from the geographic convertor corresponding to the first living unit in response to the providing of the first living unit identifier, the first living unit identifier identifying a first living unit within a distribution area being serviced by a land-line telecommunications service;
• a figure delineation processor to delineate a first closed plane figure that bounds the first geographic location point received by the graphic converter based on a plurality of geographic location points surrounding the first geographic location point, the plurality of geographic location points associated with respective living units, the figure delineation processor to delineate a second closed plane figure that bounds a second geographic location point, the second geographic location point being associated with a second living unit within the distribution area, wherein the first closed plane figure is a first Thiessen polygon;
• and
• a merger to merge the first closed plane figure and the second closed plane figure when the first living unit and the second living unit are serviced by a same cross-box to create a distribution area figure of the distribution area serviced by the land-line telecommunications service, at least one of the graphic converter, the figure delineation processor, and the merger being implemented by a logic circuit.

A method comprising:

• rendering a boundary map on a display device;
• and
• adding a distribution area figure of a distribution area to the boundary map, the distribution area figure being a result of merging a first closed plane figure and a second closed plane figure serviced by a same cross-box of a telecommunications service provider, wherein:
• the first closed plane figure represents a first area including a first living unit, the first closed plane figure created based on a first plurality of geographic location points surrounding the first living unit, each of the geographic location points in the first plurality associated with respective living units, wherein the first closed plane figure is a first Thiessen polygon;
• and
• the second closed plane figure represents a second area including a second living unit, the second closed plane figure created based on a second plurality of geographic location points surrounding the second living unit.

A tangible machine-readable medium comprising instructions, which when executed, cause a machine to perform operations comprising:

• rendering a boundary map on a display device;
• and
• adding a distribution area figure of a distribution area to the boundary map, the distribution area figure being added by merging a first closed plane figure and a second closed plane figure when a first living unit associated with the first closed plane figure and a second living unit associated with the second closed plane figure are serviced by a same cross-box, the distribution area being serviced by a telecommunications service provider, wherein:
• the first closed plane figure represents a first area including a first living unit, the first closed plane figure created based on a first plurality of geographic location points surrounding the first living unit, each of the geographic location points in the first plurality associated with respective living units, wherein the first closed plane figure is a first Thiessen polygon;
• and
• the second closed plane figure represents a second area including a second living unit, the second closed plane figure created based on a second plurality of geographic location points surrounding the second geographic location point.
