Various telecommunication datasets such as cellphone towers and service areas, land mobile station locations, AM, FM, and TV communication can be downloaded on an FCC page. Additionally, data files can be individually downloaded from the FCC Universal Licensing System data site. This data resource is intended to guide users toward the authoritative data source and to demonstrate at least one translation of that data into a spatial format.

The metadata for this translated dataset is here:

Antenna Structure Registration: antenna_structure_registration_mn.html

In addition, the Department of Homeland Security's Homeland Infrastructure Foundation - Level Data (HIFLD) program has an "Open Data" site, which includes a nationwide dataset on Cellular Towers derived from the FCC Universal Licensing System Database: https://hifld-geoplatform.opendata.arcgis.com/datasets/cellular-towers

Cellular phone microwave towers registered with the U.S. Federal Communications Commission. Not all antennas are required to be registered with the FCC, therefore, this data set does not necessarily depict ALL cellular phone communication towers actually present on the landscape. The source data are updated weekly by the FCC as new permits are issued. However, this particular data set is designed for a specific analysis, and is planned to remain static as of the publication date (11/06/2003).

description: This dataset is a point shapefile of licensed cellular towers downloaded as part of the FCC ULS database of cellular towers in Indiana. The ground condition of this data changes frequently, therefore; new towers that may have been in the application process are not included in this dataset. The dataset does not represent all antennae structures.; abstract: This dataset is a point shapefile of licensed cellular towers downloaded as part of the FCC ULS database of cellular towers in Indiana.

Cellular tower locations as recorded by the Federal Communications Commission, extracted from the FCC Universal Licensing System Database. With these data sets, users are able to determine the locations and limited technical details of existing towers the FCC collects data on (i.e. Cellular, Paging, Microwave, AM, FM, etc.). This information can be extremely helpful in conducting analysis such as: current service deployment, need/feasibility determinations of new services, colocation of antenna structures, inventorying of structures, network planning, etc.The full Kansas geospatial catalog is administered by the Kansas Data Access & Support Center (DASC) and can be found at the following URL: https://hub.kansasgis.org/
