== Existing Data Source ==
== Comparable Data Sources ==
Note: Some data are shared between projects, for example OpenBmap imports data from OpenCellID on a regular basis and Enaikoon started based on an older snapshot of opencellid.org data.
 
A good starting point for related projects is Wikipedia, both http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_ID and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_positioning_system
 
A couple of other projects are:

We haven't imported or share data with any of these projects, based on different commercial/license terms. The only exception to that is OpenCellID where we are also hosting their aggregate data set, but keep it separate for license reasons.

Comparable Data Sources

A good starting point for related projects is Wikipedia, both http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_ID and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wi-Fi_positioning_system

A couple of other projects are:

Skyhook http://skyhookwireless.com/ 700M APs and cells Commercial
OpenMobileNetwork http://www.openmobilenetwork.org/ 11k cells 200k unknown
