How this figure is calculated

Fixed broadband subscriptions divided by Land area (sq. km), matched on country and year. Neither publisher issues this ratio as a series; it is computed here from both.

Fixed broadband subscriptions ÷ Land area (sq. km)

Computed from

  • Fixed broadband subscriptions World Telecommunication/ICT Indicators Database, International Telecommunication Union (ITU)
  • Land area FAOSTAT, Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)

Statizoid computes this series; the underlying measurements belong to the publishers named above. The arithmetic is applied to every country and year where both inputs report, and nothing is estimated unless the page says so.
