Do large telecom providers have control over the data represented on a state broadband map?
When developing a broadband map in any given state, Connected Nation works with many providers both large and small. For example, in Minnesota, Connected Nation mapped more than 121 providers (large and small). Each provider submits their own data and retains rights to their own data. A provider has no access to and plays no role in processing data from any other broadband provider. Every broadband provider, whether or not it is a formal partner of Connected Nation, has the same level of access to the statewide broadband maps.
