Rate Center Geodata

Is there an authoritative source for rate center latitude and longitude? Is there a free source for this data? I'm aware that BIRRDS/LERG has the Switch CLLI coordinates, but I don't know if the rate center virtual coordinates are also there. NANPA said, "NANPA doesn?t have this information. We suggest you check with a vendor who creates rate center maps, but we can?t recommend one." Is rate center data centralized, or invented by carriers and 3rd parties?

Haven't looked in awhile, but telcodata.us has a bit of that information. On Mon, Mar 20, 2023 at 9:36?AM Calvin E. via VoiceOps < voiceops at voiceops.org> wrote:

I actually just added "npa-exchange-state-ratecenter <https://www.telcodata.us/data-downloads?file=npa-exchange-state-ratecenter>" on the web (npa-exchange-state-ratecenter-ocn-company-city-county-zip-lat-lon-byratecenter.csv on FTP) for this one, if that does what you need it's not "authoritative" but nothing really is. It's derived from the ILEC end office lat/lon in the rate center. It's not perfect, but if you launched a large enough nuke at the coordinates I provide, I'm confident it'd hit whatever you're looking at. ?

Nice work, Paul!? I spot checked a few that are in my area.? The coordinates are not perfect, but are close.? In general, the coordinates are within a mile of the central office.
