About Statistics Publications & Documents Information by Country

The OECD Telecommunications Database is a unique source of key indicators on the communications sector in 29 OECD Member countries. It provides over 100 time series of data of indicators on telecommunications such as network infrastructure, revenues, expenses and investment of operators, trade in telecommunications equipment, as well as various economic indicators, such as GDP and national employment. The OECD Telecommunications Database covers the years 1980 to 1999, where available. The Database uses the Beyond 20/20TM browser, a user-friendly, WindowsTM-based software that allows the user to extract and export data, build tables and graphs, and display maps.

Also available in paper form and on line, the OECD Telecommunications Database is produced in association with the biennial OECD Communications Outlook. For more information on major trends in information technology, please consult the OECD Information Technology Outlook, published every other year.

The OECD Telecommunications Database is also available on line at www.SourceOECD.org.
