Dear Mark and James,
The broadbandcatalyst map is fascinating and, in areas where I feel I have some knowledge, seems to be accurate. In places with enormous availability I know there are still populations who are without. Does the crowd sourcing involve technologies that carries a perhaps unavoidable bias against those populations?
Regards,
Tim

The problems with FCC-collected Form 477 data are well known. Little has been done to fix those problems and while the mapping projects funded by NTIA under the BTOP program helped many have run out of funding. The map below, developed by a group from North Carolina, uses crowd sourcing to begin resolving the problems and improving resolution. This project does not have sustainable long-term funding though.

Has anyone had a moment to take a deep dive into the newly released National Broadband Map? https://broadbandmap.fcc.gov/
I curious to hear what folks think about it. The provider submitted Form 477, updated 2x per year seems to be the data source informing the map.
A couple of initial comments – 1) providing the public with a way to feedback on whether the provider information is accurate for their locale is an essential feature that is currently missing. 2) searching the area I know best, my home neighborhood, I noticed several errors and omissions. I’m curious to hear if others are seeing for their zip code. 3) A bill has been introduced to move the mapping function to NTIA https://billjohnson.house.gov/
