The TAP program (Terrain Analysis
Package), developed by SoftWright, studies radio coverage:
it offers a complete analysis of the propagation of a signal,
from the transmitter to the receiving zone. A radio signal
is greatly influenced by the geographic configuration of the
broadcast area: for this reason, the main module of the TAP
program is a GIS, which contains, along with topographic data,
other elements that influence radio transmissions, such as
climate, soil composition, and urbanization.
