FCC Broadband Map Data Collection

High-speed, high-quality internet service is essential for participation in modern life. The FCC has a new map showing where internet service is – and is not – available across the country, down to the location level.

As part of the FCC’s Broadband Data Collection, internet service providers report where they make internet services available. The FCC reviews the data and then publishes it on the National Broadband Map. You can easily dispute, or challenge, information shown on the map that you believe is inaccurate. An accurate map will help identify the unserved and underserved communities most in need of funding for high-speed internet infrastructure investments.
