Re: FCC Broadband Map
#2Seems accurate for my area in West Denver
Re: FCC Broadband Map
#3This is so much bullshit.
Satellite coverage should not be counted, because that requires a clear view of the sky. My property and most others in this area are covered in forest, so those options are right out.
My only options are terrestrial, where the highest listed speed is 10Mbps. It is not fair for my local ISP to compete against entities that cannot possibly serve the same address.

You can dispute it if you are unable to get satellite service, or filter it appropriately to only include landline service.

#6In Wisconsin we have this map that I used heavily when searching for new apartments and house shopping. It has the ability to filter by wireline vs wireless and satellite, which is nice.

#7Used to use some of this data for analyzing cellular service coverage. The info on cellular data (e.g., LTE) availability is provided by the cell providers and is usually... very optimistic.
I'd assume the terrestrial fiber/cable/DSL data is more accurate, though?

#8My firm is working to improve the social determinants of health/health equity through better data and analytics. Broadband access risk is of central interest.
We’ve incorporated this specific FCC data into our Equity Data Geo Explorer, which gives a visual of broadband risk (among others) down to the neighborhood level. [1]
I welcome a conversation with anyone else who is working in this space. Email in bio.

What prevents you putting a dish up on a pole/post to get a signal?
Re: FCC Broadband Map
#10This is great but also not 100% accurate. My address shows nothing but my neighbor's address shows all the various other options in the area. My area also got fiber ~ 2 months ago and it's not shown on this map at all.
But still could have used something like this each time I moved and had to figure out what providers were in a particular location.
