Evidence-led Web GIS for planning terrestrial African NLD fibre corridors # ATLAS-FIBRE Evidence-led planning for terrestrial African National Long Distance fibre corridors. The engineering preview includes every corridor defined in the supplied brief: - **Link 1: South Africa → Cairo** - Variant 1A: South Africa → Zimbabwe → Zambia → Tanzania. - Variant 1B: South Africa → Mozambique → Tanzania. - Shared north: Kenya → Ethiopia → Sudan → Egypt. - **Link 2:** South Africa → Morocco along an Atlantic-facing terrestrial corridor. Western Sahara is counted as a territory without asserting sovereignty. - **Link 3:** South Africa → DRC → Libya, with central-African and Saharan breaks shown explicitly. - **Link 4:** Maputo, Mozambique → Walvis Bay, Namibia. - **Link 5:** Dar es Salaam, Tanzania → Luanda, Angola. - **Link 6A:** Mombasa, Kenya → Kisangani, DRC; **Link 6B:** Dar es Salaam → Mbuji-Mayi → Lobito, Angola. - **Link 7:** Addis Ababa, Ethiopia → Libreville, Gabon. - **Link 8:** Addis Ababa → Sudan → Central African Republic → Cameroon → Abuja, Nigeria. - **Link 9:** Cairo, Egypt → Libya → Niger → Algeria → Nouakchott, Mauritania. - **Link 10:** Goma → Bukavu → Mbuji-Mayi → Kinshasa, a DRC central east–west national study corridor. - **Link 11:** Gbadolite → Kisangani → Kindu → Lubumbashi, a DRC north–south national study corridor. Every visible line is a proposed desktop road alignment generated from the OpenStreetMap road graph. It is not a claim that fibre already exists or can be reused. The current demo also includes: - An explainable route optimiser with balanced, engineering-cost-index, shortest-distance and gap-exposure modes. The cost index is dimensionless until licensed prices and commercial terms are loaded. - 1,017 approximate public discovery spans from 14 OFDS provider/network datasets, filterable by provider and country. - A provider-data staging endpoint for KMZ, KML, GeoJSON and CSV files. The demo validates and fingerprints files in memory; it does not pretend they have been persisted or approved. - A licensed con …
