Our leadership team has decades of experience in telecoms, infrastructure strategy, and data science. We’ve built and advised national-scale deployments. We understand both the complexity of networks and the demands of public sector delivery—and built Streetwave to bridge those worlds.
Streetwave doesn’t rely on app users or phones. We collect our own data following industry best-practices and a consistent methodology. This controlled approached ensures we collect the highest quality data from road, rail or pedestrian areas. All our data is captured from our own handsets, and we only use handsets that contain modern chipsets, for example Samsung Galaxy S25.
