About Tower Collector
Tower Collector records GPS observations associated with nearby mobile phone cell towers. It supports GSM, UMTS, LTE, CDMA, TD-SCDMA, and 5G NR networks, and can be used either to build a personal collection or to contribute measurements to public cell-location projects. These measurements help map where cellular infrastructure can be detected and can support location estimation based on nearby towers. The app is designed to collect observations while managing GPS behavior to reduce battery use. Users can upload collected tower locations to supported public databases, or export the data to a storage card in CSV, JSON, GPX, KML, or KMZ format. These options support both sharing observations with mapping projects and retaining files for personal analysis in other tools. The app's role is to gather and export measurements; the broader coverage and usefulness of a resulting database depend on the observations contributed by users. Its supported network types and multiple export formats make it useful for people interested in documenting cellular coverage or maintaining reusable location data. The supplied product information says the app does not collect or transmit information that directly identifies the user or device.
