Delivering the Data
Our map data is delivered as a JSON API—which includes GeoJSON and JSON files—through Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3). We can also make a secure FTP work.
Our team uploads the API as a zip file with a timestamped filename. You’ll permit our Amazon account to upload files to the S3 bucket (we can guide you through this process). Moving forward, the API will automatically upload to your S3 bucket every time we make an update to the map.
JSON API? S3 Bucket? I'm not following.
That's okay. That probably means you're not a visual designer or data engineer. These are terms of art that outline the specific types of files we share, how we share them, and how we ensure you receive updates to our datasets, which happen frequently.
If you don't have anyone on your team with experience using these file types, we can guide you through related research and custom map services that may be a better fit for your project.
Available Map Data
- Submarine Cable Map
The Submarine Cable Map is famous for a reason. No other resource comes close to matching TeleGeography's accuracy in visualizing the world's major submarine cable systems and landing stations. This dataset includes cable system name, country, planning status, RFS date, cable system length, ownership, landing points, and more.
- Internet Exchange Map
The dataset includes internet exchanges at the building level.
- Data Center Research Map
The dataset includes data center sites at the building level.
- Cloud Infrastructure Map
This dataset includes all cloud regions and on-ramp locations for content service providers, cloud exchanges and on-ramp locations for data center operators, and WAN services for network service providers, all at the metro area level.
If you wish to license our data for commercial purposes, access is sold as an annual license. Licenses for multiple datasets can be bundled.

Next-Level Research
Need more power?
Access to TeleGeography's Transport Networks Research Service unlocks the database behind our interactive submarine cable map—and our cable fault dashboard, which includes information on publicly disclosed faults on subsea cables since 2017.
You'll also get primary research, written analysis, and interactive tools for exploring long-haul network data and the undersea cable market.
Can I have access to this data for my academic work?
This TeleGeography data and our full research services are available through academic/non-profit licenses and pricing. This company-wide access unlocks unlimited users at your organization.
