Re: Cell phone tower locations in Canada

How so, the data is there? Granted if they included coverage maps (just based on tower height and power alone) and allowed to filter sites by provider, both would certainly have improved the functionality.

Edit, just noticed they included antenna direction, out in the rural areas most towers are linked via Microwave, it would be nice if they showed path lines from tower to tower as well

Thanks, I missed that function.

EDIT - seems that not all the data is plotted correctly either (img).

Is the tower floating on a barge?

Seriously, we are working on manually correcting errors like this. Stay tuned.

Nah there is nothing out in the lake at that point except water, the co-ordinates must be off. The ID suggests it is in Kitchener so the towers spatial co-ordinates must be messed up, specifically the longitude as its just a tad west by around 70km.
