NALENND™

The Premium Edition is a basic geocoded telephone Area Code and Exchange database. It contains all active NPA NXX listings for the United States, Canada, and most of the Caribbean. Telephone exchange details are at the 10,000-block level.

The coverage area for an exchange is identified by its Rate Center name. A Rate Center may be a town, city, or geographic area. The line type for an NPA NXX is the original LERG™ assignee's or CO code holder's reported use. United States CBSA, MSA, and PMSA codes are included and are "tied" to the NPA NXX based on the exchange's Rate Center.

The included geographic latitude and longitude coordinates specify the approximate center of the area served by the telephone exchange. These are generalized coordinates for basic area location only.
