System Design Methodology
6.1 Site Survey
Note:
It is strongly recommended that some of the site survey is concluded prior
to system design commences.
The site survey should be, as a minimum, a review of the site using tools such as Google
Earth or Google Maps.
However it is recommended that for existing sites, where the WiMag system is expected
to replace existing detection methodologies, a site visit should be executed. The site
survey template provides a checklist of the key elements that should be
considered/reviewed on a site survey visit.

However, the Sensys Networks design guides are generalised. This section outlines
specific design elements that are required for a successful implementation using Siemens
interface card and controller. In addition, Siemens have carried out extensive testing and
therefore there are several default settings that are applied when using the WiMag access
points in Siemens installations.
