Digital Agenda targets: the aims of the EU being covered nationwide
by broadband above 30 Mbps by 2020 and 50% of the EU to be
subscribed to broadband above 100 Mbps by 2020
Broadband development strategies

• Local Authorities and Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Latvia
are responsible for the data collection process and date base of
physical infrastructure for all networks operators data support. This
database meets the requirements of the Directive 2007/2/EC –
establishing an Infrastructure for Spatial Information in the
European Community (INSPIRE).
• There are map fragments (geo data vector format) in this data
base but it is not possible to have a common map for all the
country.
Infrastructure mapping
5
• The Ministry of Transport is responsible for the detailed
infrastructure mapping that includes information on the optical
network infrastructure, according to the order of the Cabinet about
the NGA network development concept from 2013 to 2020.
• Ministry of Transport during 2016 has to prepare amendments to
the Electronic Communications Act, which provides requirements
for an optical network infrastructure database and mapping.
Infrastructure mapping

State aid project (Middle-mile) was supported by the EU and Government (since 2012)
• Main objective – to facilitate provision of high-speed broadband optical networks in rural areas.
• Construction of middle mile in remote areas up to municipalities where is the access point. Infrastructure is offered for local ISPs. Open access enables competition in the last mile which means that the local ISPs should roll-out optical fiber from the access point till subscribers.
• The project is deemed also for mobile operators (to connect base stations).
• Cost-oriented and non-discriminatory access.
Middle-mile project implementation

High-speed broadband optical networks developing in rural areas for the NGN services
Broadband developing in rural areas
• START of the middle-mile project 1st stage
2012
• 177 access points
• 1800 km optical cable
2015 • START of the 2nd stage of broadband networks developing
2016
• add >200 access points
2020

• Fixed network operators mapping takes place individually and the
results are not published in common place, but to inform the
public are used other methods, for example, operators informs
about the availability of infrastructure and services of an interested
party by individual request.
• Mobile network operators service coverage maps are available
