About
Online access to the OECD Telecommunications and Internet Statistics Database is provided through this subscription. It contains annual data on mobile data usage per mobile broadband subscription, measured in gigabytes (GB) per month, for OECD countries. A mobile broadband subscription is defined as one with an advertised data speed of 256 kbit/s or greater, which has been used for an IP data connection in the last three months. The database is updated every two years and offers a historical perspective on telecommunications trends.
