Cell tower coverage for specific bands

General
#1

Hello, I’m looking to find the cell tower coverage for certain bands and record the location of the cell towers in a spreadsheet.

For context, I want to find the tower coverage coverage for all that don’t have band (call it x), but have band (call it y). I also want to find the full coverage for band x and band y, respectively along with combined.

I’m new to OpenCelliD—are there any resources that I can use for background on how to do this?
Thanks.

Thank you for writing in.

OpenCelliD does not have data on frequency bands - we only have data on approximate coordinates of individual cells (not physical cell towers). For any analysis on coverage, you’ll first have to extrapolate coverage area. This can be different based on the radio type, for example LTE covers a smaller area compared to GSM.
