PUNKU is a tool designed by OSIPTEL that allows people to access various updated information on the telecommunications sector in Peru.
By mean of PUNKU, several telecommunications sector indicators can be analyzed, related to lines, connections, traffic, incomes and prices of public telecommunications services. Likewise, information on investments made by telecomm operators, financial ratios, claims for service and company, service access data, as well as fixed and mobile number portability data is provided by the tool. Indicators are continuously updated with different periodicity depending on the kind of information; in consequence, updates can be monthly (such as portability data), quarterly (such as line/connection data) or annually (such as financial data).
Indicators shown in PUNKU can be exported to Excel, Word, or PDF format; likewise, the tool also allows downloading information structured in databases (“PUNKU Datasets”), guaranteeing access to open data on telecommunications sector.
Finally, it should be noted that PUNKU allows the interactive use of showed indicators, since it makes possible to modify the types of graphs and modify time frame based on scroll buttons.
