Coverage Maps
Ookla’s Coverage Score captures both the number of locations in which an operator offers service (its footprint) and the quality of service in each location. These features are determined using data from coverage scans, which capture the real-time network conditions of Android Speedtest users across the globe. An operator’s footprint is the fraction of locations within a given market where a device has access to service. Each location is assigned a score based equally on the availability of general and 4G service. For example, if a provider offered non-4G service in a location, that location would receive a score of 1/2. The overall Coverage Score for an operator is its footprint multiplied by the average quality score across its observed locations. Further, a multiplier is applied to the Coverage Score so that it is scaled from 0 to 1000 to avoid confusion that it could represent the percentage of an area or population with coverage. To minimize the impact of misconfigured or under-performing devices, we require coverage scans from at least two devices at each location.
