The University of Chicago was awarded a $750,000 Project Grant from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Social and Economic Science under CFDA Program 47.075 to develop and validate new sampling and modeling approaches for measuring broadband performance at the community level. The research aims to inform ongoing federal broadband infrastructure investment efforts by empowering local stakeholders with tools to gather longitudinal internet performance data and understand how this information affects decision-making on broadband deployment. Working with six diverse communities, the project will identify factors that constrain or enable the adoption of novel internet measurement data into broadband governance processes. By improving the quality and utility of broadband performance data, this award seeks to ensure that federal broadband infrastructure investments reach the areas most in need.
