## Goal

In this guide you will learn how to:
- Load the OpenCelliD data in ClickHouse
- Connect Apache Superset to ClickHouse
- Build a dashboard based on data available in the dataset

Here is a preview of the dashboard created in this guide:

![Dashboard of cell towers by radio type in mcc 204](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-cell-tower-dashboard.png)

## Get the Dataset {#get-the-dataset}

This dataset is from [OpenCelliD](https://www.opencellid.org/) - The world's largest Open Database of Cell Towers.

As of 2021, it contains more than 40 million records about cell towers (GSM, LTE, UMTS, etc.) around the world with their geographical coordinates and metadata (country code, network, etc.).

OpenCelliD Project is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International License, and we redistribute a snapshot of this dataset under the terms of the same license. The up-to-date version of the dataset is available to download after sign in.

1. Download the snapshot of the dataset from February 2021: [cell_towers.csv.xz](https://datasets.clickhouse.com/cell_towers.csv.xz) (686 MB).

2. Validate the integrity (optional step):
```bash
md5sum cell_towers.csv.xz
```
```response
8a797f7bdb55faba93f6cbc37d47b037  cell_towers.csv.xz
```

3. Decompress it with the following command:
```bash
xz -d cell_towers.csv.xz
```

4. Create a table:

```sql
CREATE TABLE cell_towers
(
    radio Enum8('' = 0, 'CDMA' = 1, 'GSM' = 2, 'LTE' = 3, 'NR' = 4, 'UMTS' = 5),
    mcc UInt16,
    net UInt16,
    area UInt16,
    cell UInt64,
    unit Int16,
    lon Float64,
    lat Float64,
    range UInt32,
    samples UInt32,
    changeable UInt8,
    created DateTime,
    updated DateTime,
    averageSignal UInt8
)
ENGINE = MergeTree ORDER BY (radio, mcc, net, created);
```

5. Insert the dataset:
```bash
clickhouse-client --query "INSERT INTO cell_towers FORMAT CSVWithNames" < cell_towers.csv
```

</TabItem>
</Tabs>

## Run some example queries {#examples}

1. A number of cell towers by type:

```sql
SELECT radio, count() AS c FROM cell_towers GROUP BY radio ORDER BY c DESC
```
```response
┌─radio─┬────────c─┐
│ UMTS  │ 20686487 │
│ LTE   │ 12101148 │
│ GSM   │  9931304 │
│ CDMA  │   556344 │
│ NR    │      867 │
└───────┴──────────┘

5 rows in set. Elapsed: 0.011 sec. Processed 43.28 million rows, 43.28 MB (3.83 billion rows/s., 3.83 GB/s.)
```

2. Cell towers by [mobile country code (MCC)](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code):

```sql
SELECT mcc, count() FROM cell_towers GROUP BY mcc ORDER BY count() DESC LIMIT 10
```
```response
┌─mcc─┬─count()─┐
│ 310 │ 5024650 │
│ 262 │ 2622423 │
│ 250 │ 1953176 │

│ 510 │ 1353998 │
│ 440 │ 1343355 │
│ 311 │ 1332798 │
└─────┴─────────┘

10 rows in set. Elapsed: 0.019 sec. Processed 43.28 million rows, 86.55 MB (2.33 billion rows/s., 4.65 GB/s.)
```

Based on the above query and the [MCC list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code), the countries with the most cell towers are: the USA, Germany, and Russia.

You may want to create a [Dictionary](../../sql-reference/dictionaries/index.md) in ClickHouse to decode these values.

## Use case: Incorporate geo data {#use-case}

Using the [`pointInPolygon`](/docs/en/sql-reference/functions/geo/coordinates.md/#pointinpolygon) function.

1. Create a table where we will store polygons:

<Tabs groupId="deployMethod">
<TabItem value="serverless" label="ClickHouse Cloud" default>

```sql
CREATE TABLE moscow (polygon Array(Tuple(Float64, Float64)))
ORDER BY polygon;
```

</TabItem>
<TabItem value="selfmanaged" label="Self-managed">

```sql
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE
moscow (polygon Array(Tuple(Float64, Float64)));
```

</TabItem>
</Tabs>

2. This is a rough shape of Moscow (without "new Moscow"):

```sql

## Review of the schema

Before building visualizations in Superset have a look at the columns that you will use. This dataset primarily provides the location (Longitude and Latitude) and radio types at mobile cellular towers worldwide. The column descriptions can be found in the [community forum](https://community.opencellid.org/t/documenting-the-columns-in-the-downloadable-cells-database-csv/186).  The columns used in the visualizations that will be built are described below

Here is a description of the columns taken from the OpenCelliD forum:

| Column       | Description                                            |
|--------------|--------------------------------------------------------|
| radio        | Technology generation: CDMA, GSM, UMTS, 5G NR          |
| mcc          | Mobile Country Code: `204` is The Netherlands          |
| lon          | Longitude: With Latitude, approximate tower location   |
| lat          | Latitude: With Longitude, approximate tower location   |

:::tip mcc
To find your MCC check [Mobile network codes](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_country_code), and use the three digits in the **Mobile country code** column.
:::

The schema for this table was designed for compact storage on disk and query speed.
- The `radio` data is stored as an `Enum8` (`UInt8`) rather than a string.
- `mcc` or Mobile country code, is stored as a `UInt16` as we know the range is 1 - 999.
- `lon` and `lat` are `Float64`.

None of the other fields are used in the queries or visualizations in this guide, but they are described in the forum linked above if you are interested.

## Build visualizations with Apache Superset

Superset is easy to run from Docker.  If you already have Superset running, all you need to do is add ClickHouse Connect with `pip install clickhouse-connect`.  If you need to install Superset open the **Launch Apache Superset in Docker** directly below.

<SupersetDocker />

To build a Superset dashboard using the OpenCelliD dataset you should:
- Add your ClickHouse service as a Superset **database**
- Add the table **cell_towers** as a Superset **dataset**
- Create some **charts**
- Add the charts to a **dashboard**

### Add your ClickHouse service as a Superset database

<ConnectionDetails />

  In Superset a database can be added by choosing the database type, and then providing the connection details.  Open Superset and look for the **+**, it has a menu with **Data** and then **Connect database** options.

  ![Add a database](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-add.png)

  Choose **ClickHouse Connect** from the list:

  ![Choose clickhouse connect as database type](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-choose-a-database.png)

:::note
  If **ClickHouse Connect** is not one of your options, then you will need to install it. The command is `pip install clickhouse-connect`, and more info is [available here](https://pypi.org/project/clickhouse-connect/).
:::

#### Add your connection details:

:::tip
  Make sure that you set **SSL** on when connecting to ClickHouse Cloud or other ClickHouse systems that enforce the use of SSL.
:::

  ![Add ClickHouse as a Superset data source](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-connect-a-database.png)

### Add the table **cell_towers** as a Superset **dataset**

  In Superset a **dataset** maps to a table within a database.  Click on add a dataset and choose your ClickHouse service, the database containing your table (`default`), and choose the `cell_towers` table:

![Add cell_towers table as a dataset](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-add-dataset.png)

### Create some **charts**

When you choose to add a chart in Superset you have to specify the dataset (`cell_towers`) and the chart type.  Since the OpenCelliD dataset provides longitude and latitude coordinates for cell towers we will create a **Map** chart.  The **deck.gL Scatterplot** type is suited to this dataset as it works well with dense data points on a map.

![Create a map in Superset](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-create-map.png)

#### Specify the query used for the map

A deck.gl Scatterplot requires a longitude and latitude, and one or more filters can also be applied to the query.  In this example two filters are applied, one for cell towers with UMTS radios, and one for the Mobile country code assigned to The Netherlands.

The fields `lon` and `lat` contain the longitude and latitude:

![Specify longitude and latitude fields](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-lon-lat.png)

Add a filter with `mcc` = `204` (or substitute any other `mcc` value):

![Filter on MCC 204](@site/docs/en/getting-started/example-datasets/images/superset-mcc-204.png)

Add a filter with `radio` = `'UMTS'` (or substitute any other `radio` value, you can see the choices in the output of `DESCRIBE TABLE cell_towers`):

This is the full configuration for the chart that filters on `radio = 'UMTS'` and `mcc = 204`:

Click on **UPDATE CHART** to render the visualization.

### Add the charts to a **dashboard**

This screenshot shows cell tower locations with LTE, UMTS, and GSM radios.  The charts are all created in the same way, and they are added to a dashboard.

:::tip
The data is also available for interactive queries in the [Playground](https://play.clickhouse.com/play?user=play).

This [example](https://play.clickhouse.com/play?user=play#U0VMRUNUIG1jYywgY291bnQoKSBGUk9NIGNlbGxfdG93ZXJzIEdST1VQIEJZIG1jYyBPUkRFUiBCWSBjb3VudCgpIERFU0M=) will populate the username and even the query for you.

Although you cannot create tables in the Playground, you can run all of the queries and even use Superset (adjust the host name and port number).
