Broadband Mapping in the Motherlode

February 8, 2010 By Greg Falken 1 Comment

Here there be dragonsA-TCAA Central Sierra Connect needs your help with mapping broadband in our region (Amador, Alpine, Calaveras, Mariposa and Tuolumne counties). Please follow this link to the “crowdsourcing” module, created by Solstice Geospatial, to help map our area’s broadband footprint. On this site, you can put in your address (for home and/or business), take a speed test to see how fast your service is and, after pinning your location on the map, tell them who your provider is, how much your service costs, and any comments you have about your service. All information remains completely confidential.

Please pass this link on to all of your contacts and friends in our region, so that we can make this the most complete and accurate map in California!

    Nice idea, perhaps you could integrate google maps with it? I know there are a few sites over here in the UK that have mapped speed test data this way.
