This paper presents the results of a scintillation measurement campaign. The receivers used during this campaign were located in five regions of the globe which allowed us to investigate geographic similarities and differences. Most of the receivers were located in the equatorial region, and one of them was located at high latitudes. Significant results were achieved even though the measurement period was around solar minimum. An intercomparison with the Wide-Band Scintillation Model and the Global Ionosphere Scintillation Model has been carried out, and the construction of scintillations maps has been initiated.
