Infralink-Exchange Playbook
The Infralink-Exchange Playbook is a ‘how-to’ guide allowing public sector bodies to begin a project that improves mobile connectivity through commercial and GIS based transformation. This best practice guide including case studies, templates and points to note, is a key output for the Infralink-Exchange Programme, a DCMS-funded project, with support from The Scotland 5G Centre.
Infralink Toolkit
It’s recognised that improving mobile digital connectivity across Scotland will benefit everyone, but agreeing on where digital infrastructure should and can go, is a complicated process requiring a partnership between public bodies, mobile network operators and the community. Infralink, a project funded by The Scotland 5G Centre, offers a credible option to current practice by establishing tools that are balanced and transparent and work at a national level. The tools build off existing operating leases, valuations, case-law and data, so that they work in the real world.
5G New Thinking Toolkit
The 5G New Thinking Rural Toolkit (5GNT) is a practical guide for remote and rural communities who are considering building and operating their own next-generation communications networks. In it you will find information and guidance aimed at helping you to create your business plan, design and build your network, and then operate the network and run your business.
