The telecom regulator has developed web-based interactive GIS Map of optical fibre laid across the country, which shows district-upazila-union level connectivity and technical aspects of the optical fiber cable.
Chairman of the regulator Bangladesh Telecommuni-cation Regulatory Commission (BTRC) -- Dr Shahjahan Mahmood yesterday came up with the announcement of unveiling the GIS (Geographical Information System) Map at a press conference at BTRC.
"The optical fibre laid by all the operators has been incorporated in the map which will be displayed with detailed information," said Dr Shahjahan Mahmood.
He hoped the map would play a fundamental role in implementing any government and private project related to connectivity.
However, permission would be required for using this map, added the regulatory body chairman.
BTRC prepared the GIS map following the necessity of domestic network planning, as there was no comprehensive picture of fibre optic cable laid by different operators.
Under the supervision of BTRC, Center for Environmental and Geographical Information Service (CEGIS) of water resources ministry formulated the map. The CEGIS would also update the map in next two years. Besides, BTRC would develop internal human resources for the map.
