Abstract:

<p>The World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators database contains time series data for more than 180 telecommunication/ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) statistics. It covers fixed-telephone networks, mobile-cellular telephone subscriptions, quality of service, Internet (including fixed- and mobile-broadband subscription data), traffic, staff, prices, revenue, investment and statistics on ICT access and use by households and individuals. Selected demographic, macroeconomic and broadcasting statistics are also included. The data is for the years 1960, 1965, 1970 and annually from 1975 to 2017.</p> <p><br>The WTI Database also includes: <ul><li>Economy yearbook pages featuring in the Yearbook of Statistics. These pages show data in economy tables allowing readers to view the evolution of telecommunication services by economy. Statistics are provided for the ten-year period 2007-2017.</li> <br> <li>The latest (2017) data on ICT access and use by households and individuals. Data are presented in tables and broken down by socio-demographic variables, such as age, sex, income and education level etc.</li></ul><p/> <br> <p> <b>Please note:</b> The World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators database is a relational database which must be used with the associated Software Application. In order to search and extract data from the Data file, users will need to download and install the Application and the Data file to the same folder on their personal computers. The database must be installed by first launching the executable (ending in “.exe”) file.</p>
