How can we get what the coverage area is of the telcos, cablecos, and cell phones? I'm not necessarily referring to homes passed, but on a CO, headend, or tower level. I know I've seen references to GIS data for COs. Cell phone towers should be publically accessible somewhere in ULS.
With the latest update from Brian, WISPs cover 743,456 square miles. The entire US is 3,794,066. That's 20%. If you exclude Alaska and Hawaii which are not covered in Brian's map and make up 674,198 square miles, that's 3,119,868. That puts us at 24% of the continental US. I think it would go a long way to say that WISPs provide more broadband coverage than x company provides services period, including areas they cannot provide broadband. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WISPA Wants You!
