the Authority in the identification of the gaps for each service area by giving GPS coordinates for selected Universal Service clusters (access gaps) and required areas of intervention. The portal will also be used to determine the extent of communication
coverage and the access levels by citizens. </font><span style="font-family:calibri">The map has been populated with different information layers such as Telecom (3G and 2G coverage from the 3 operators),

Rachel, this tool is a gem in the rough. <a href="http://kenyageoportal.ca.go.ke/ca_public/flash/?" target="_blank" style="text-align:justify"><span class="gmail-il">http</span>://<span class="gmail-il">kenyageoportal</span>.<span class="gmail-il">ca</span>.<wbr><span class="gmail-il">go</span>.<span class="gmail-il">ke</span>/<span class="gmail-il">ca_public</span>/<span class="gmail-il">flash</span>/?</a> I
absolutely love it bigly. I wish it could be ported to a more responsive and UX friendly map platform. The LAYERS facility that enables a user to filter different infrastructure components is great. I know of people who vacate houses in Nairobi in search of
reliable fibre network. Now here lies the solution.</div>
