Canadian Cellular Tower Google Maps Mashup
Google Maps has allowed people to become quite creative with data ‘mash-ups’ since it’s released API. Those who scurry about the wide and open range in Canada are aware that cellular coverage is not quite as guaranteed as it may be in major metropolitan areas.
With this handy Google Maps Mash-up, You can view your town, street or travel areas and see exactly what carriers provide coverage. Kudos to Steven Nikkel for this great work.
Check out the Mash-Up here.
Good work showing off the towers, although I have noticed that you are missing some telus towers around the Sarnia Ontario area, as well as London and Cambridge. Mainly southwestern Ontario some along the 402. Maybe they’re not cell phone towers I don’t know
