Network operation center (NOC) tool pattern detection and trigger to real-time monitoring operation mode

A mobile wireless communication network monitoring system. The system comprises at least one processor, a non-transitory memory, and an application stored in the non-transitory memory. When executed by the processor, the application periodically receives data from a plurality of cell sites and, in response to receiving data from one of the cell sites, examines a selection of data items of the data from the one of the cell sites. The application further, in response to one of the selected data items having a trigger value, initiates a real-time command and control process that iteratively pulls data from the cell site associated with the one of the selected data items having the trigger value and presents the data pulled from the cell site in a real-time monitoring window of an operator workstation, whereby an operator exercises timely control of the cell site.
