Stumbling in Andaman
Date : 20th to 25th February 2015
I was on a tour to the beautiful islands of Andaman and
Nicobar and found this tour an opportunity to initialize Mozilla Location
Service (MLS) by stumbling in the places I visited.

Andaman and Nicobar islands comprises of a group of 572
islands out of which 34 islands are populated with human settlements. There are
several tribal communities which till today’s date avoid outside human
interference. With very less population density, the area is a bit isolated
with a feasible internet bandwidth. The spectrum available for internet is 2G
and not populated islands provide minimal internet support. However, the frequent
Wi-Fi connections can be traced in the populated areas of towns.

I grabbed a chance to educate the local cab drivers the way
to use the Mozilla Stumbler application and I hope for a brighter map till the
end of this year.
The map of Port Blair till today afternoon.
Happy Stumbling !
