This $237,666 federal Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) will support a collaborative research project to assess the connectivity and performance of anchor institution networks (AIDs). The primary awardee is the University of California, Davis, which will work with researchers from Northeastern University and the University of California, Santa Barbara on this effort.

The project aims to create an annotated map of AIDs, including the internet service providers they use, and assess the reliability and performance of these networks. This will involve rigorously measuring network availability, outages, and bandwidth adequacy to determine if AIDs meet the technology needs of users who rely on them, such as school-age children, rural residents, and low-income urban communities. The findings will help inform broadband equity and access efforts by consumer advocates, providers, and government entities. All non-sensitive data and code will be publicly released to facilitate further research and policymaking.
