AmplitelTower Locations Map and Website Support
Task
Amplitel is Telstra’s tower infrastructure business, with more than 8,000 towers across Australia. Mobile carriers, broadcasters and other businesses lease space on those structures, and the first thing they need is to see what Amplitel has near the area they want to cover.
Code Brewery took over the support of Amplitel’s existing website. We have looked after the site and added to it since, and the largest piece of that work has been rebuilding its tower locations map.
Outcome
After a discovery and technical scoping phase, we completely rebuilt the locations map tool using the Mapbox platform, to ensure it loads quickly on a desktop or a phone, even with more than 170,000 locations on it.
A visitor can search by address, filter by structure type and open any marker to see the site’s details. They can keep a list of the sites they are interested in, share a link to a single site, and send an enquiry about one site or several at once from their own email client. Amplitel’s team keeps the location data current by uploading locations in CSV format.
Key features delivered:
- Address search and filtering by structure type.
- Interactive markers with a details panel for each site.
- Links that open the map at a single site and allow sharing of specific site locations.
- A personal list of sites, with and enquiry feature for further information.
- CSV upload for the location data.
- Ongoing support and new pages across the wider website.

Client Feedback
I had the pleasure of working with Code Brewery on a few recent projects, and I was impressed by their professionalism and commitment to the jobs at hand. They are exceptionally quick and responsive and address all the project needs. As a digital producer, they’ve saved me a lot of pain with some jobs I’m under-resourced for and couldn’t be more happy with the results. I highly recommend Anthony and his team for anyone looking for reliable and effective development services.
