I don't know of a canned solution. I can suggest two approaches. Both require some level of programming.
1. If you're a developer, then develop your own J2ME MIDlet to pull GPS and Signal Strength info from the phone and send it to a server, log it or output it through the phones serial port.

2. Connect your phone to a PC and query the signal strength using HyperTerminal. A little custom PC app would help a lot here. It could query the phone and add a timestamp to the readings. You could then meld GPS data with the RSSI data, matching on the timestamps. This data could then be displayed using MapPoint or the like.
AT+WS50? wil return signal quality
AT+WS53? will return signal strength
