In this paper, we report the initial testing of the usage of this system in order to identify the areas with the lowest RFI. Among the important parameters used to develop the database for our GIS are information on population density, location and power of telecommunication transmitters, annual rainfall level, main road network and land contour. We will also se information gathered from on-site RFI level measurements on selected prime areas generated by the GIS.
