Database

[smousavi]

Hi, I'm working on a project and needed to get the following information:

1) Do you have the entire US database for tower locations and information?

2) What content is available?

3) What is the source of the content?

4) Do we have to pay for it or is it free? I'm really interested in a free service or low cost purchase.

Thanks

smousavi,

Whatever your project is, make sure you read the Terms and Conditions for use of the data on this site, specifically:

Any use of any of the materials on this site other than for private, personal, non-commercial viewing purposes is strictly prohibited unless a license is obtained from RadioReference.com LLC. The sale, auction, lease, loan, gift, trade or barter, or use of any of the text, database tables, table data, database schema, graphics, photographs, audio and/or video material, for any other purpose, in any form, media or technology now known or hereafter developed, including the use of any of the aforementioned materials on any other Web site or networked computer environment, without a prior written consent or official license for use from RadioReference.com LLC, is expressly prohibited.

Keep in mind that there are organizations that pay good money for direct, commercial access to our database, and if you intend to use ANY of the information on this site for commercial purposes (generating revenue, consulting, setting up a reference source for customers, whatever) - then, you will be expected to get a commercial license for use.

With that said, we do not maintain a formal tower database - the FCC maintains that data and provides a freely downloadable tower ID database that anyone can use. You'll have to develop the import and processing routines to manage the data in a way that allows you to report and actually use it.
