Abstract
Points representing GSM (2G) mobile network operators within particular countries as of December 2014.
Purpose
These data are derived from submissions, made directly to Collins Bartholomew or the GSMA from mobile operators, which provide roaming detail for inclusion in the online mapping application known as Collins Mobile Coverage Web. The data were included as a metadata file to accompany Collins Bartholomew's Mobile Coverage Explorer dataset for 2G service as of 2014, and attempt to list all the networks encompassed in that corresponding dataset.
