| Abstract: The New Hampshire Community Anchor Institutions (CAI) dataset includes data on broadband availability at almost 4,000 institutions in the state. Data was collected for 7 categories of institutions as defined by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), including schools (K-12), libraries, medical/health care facilities, public safety, university/college/other post-secondary, other community support institutions-government, and other community support institutions- nongovernmental. The data set includes the status of broadband availability at each entity, the type of technology delivering broadband service, and the speed of service (down/up). It was generated from information collected by the nine regional planning agencies in NH from the individual institutions, initially via phone and/or email, and subsequently via web-based inventories, and represents broadband availability as of September 30, 2014. Extracts of the data set have been produced for incorporation in various GRANIT online viewing tools. These extracts typically include only the name, address, and type of institution, and do not include the broadband availability information that is part of the full data set. Data collection and analyses was supported by the NTIA under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA). See www.ntia.doc.gov/recovery/index.html for further information. | |
