I’m so tired of maps that are grossly inaccurate like this. Since Christmas last year I’ve been traveling across the US working remotely from my RV. I’m very meticulous about checking over a dozen sources and still have been bitten by campgrounds without any (let alone useable) cell coverage on any carrier, despite having a high gain directional antenna. I spot checked a bunch of the places I’m aware of and just like all the other maps out there, this is just flat misleading and inaccurate.
- pid-1 5y agoI've worked in a few projects for telecos in Brazil and I learned that most carriers didn't know basestation locations nor coverage accurately. A lot of that info was gathered via on site inspection and spreadsheet filling. Also most software used to organize access network information sucked hairy balls.
- nixpulvis 5y agoFunny, I bet Apple and Google have a very accurate idea of this from location and cellular modem data.
- silisili 5y agoYeah, it's not accurate. My house has zero Tmobile signal. Lake Nona FL I remember also being completely devoid of signal. Both show as pink shaded on the map.
