National broadband map

Abstract

Broadband access and availability to every American is a key pillar of this administration. Congress authorized the development and maintenance of the National Broadband Map to provide the first ever searchable and interactive map of broadband availability. Transparency in broadband availability had never before been fully realized to both consumers and policy decision makers alike. The collection, integration and publication of this data charts a new course in broadband information access and will add significantly to the policy discussion about increasing American's access to high-speed internet.
