Real deployment data for cellular networks can be very convenient when elaborating simulation scenarios in scientific papers. In the following, we present an automation tool that enables to extract the geographical data of the base stations for the mobile operators in France. | Real deployment data for cellular networks can be very convenient when elaborating simulation scenarios in scientific papers.
