Methods for mapping coverage by fixed and mobile electronic communications networks
Download as PDF (Czech) Translated into English (PDF)
Mapping of electronic communications network coverage in the Czech Republic is carried out in accordance with BEREC BoR (20) 42 guidelines and fulfils the obligations set out in the European Electronic Communications Code. Although the CTU fulfils its regulatory tasks responsibly and provides the necessary basis for monitoring coverage, there are areas relevant to the MIT where there is room for improvement, which could support the effective development of connectivity and the fulfilment of national and European targets in the field of digital infrastructure. The need for improvement is all the more urgent given that the Czech Republic still lags behind the EU average in terms of high-capacity network coverage and the achievement of national connectivity targets is unlikely. It is important to emphasise that, regardless of any changes to the data collection process, efforts should be made to keep the process as simple as possible, both from a user perspective and from a technical standpoint. It is advisable to continue reviewing the content and use of forms and to limit the scope of data collected to that which provides genuine added value for regulatory and analytical purposes. The aim is not only to make it easier for operators to fulfil their obligations, but also to ensure that data is collected and analysed to the standard required for the development of digital infrastructure.
