The domestic science of mapping wifi dead zones by walking the house with a phone held aloft.

Deadzonecartography is performed when a new router arrives or a call drops for the third time. The surveyor paces room to room watching the signal bars like a dowser, announcing readings aloud. The finished map is memorized, never drawn, and consulted when someone wants privacy with an excuse.

Etym. — dead zone + cartography — the charting of the home's signal geography.
