Download the data

We have made some of the data that underpins the Connected Nations report available for download.

From this update onwards, we provide two new open data files with fixed and mobile coverage data for the UK and Nations. The files contain extracts of the Interactive report in a more readily usable format.

We have also published an updated list of postcodes at which we estimate that some properties cannot get a reliable indoor mobile signal from any mobile operator.

Please see our terms of use for our licence conditions. If you have any questions or feedback on the data we have made available, email us at open.data@ofcom.org.uk.
