fantastic, good work

is there any work to get this data into the osm database? i assume the
license is compatible? it would be great to get existing cells
rendered on an alternative tile set, cache them for viewing in
tangogps and see where the blank spots are, to know where needs
collecting.

by the way, i'm curious, why there is only one provider listed for new
zealand? i assume only data for vodafone cells has been collected, and
no telecom or 2degrees/worldcom?
