This dataset represents broadband coverage across the state of Colorado. It is developed by the CO Broadband Data and Development Program (CBDDP) within OIT. It contains several layers of geospatial data depicting the various types of broadband technologies deployed throughout the state. The data is compiled via an extensive outreach effort in which broadband service providers submit data detailing their latest broadband offerings. The dataset also includes a processing guide, which describes the specific technical steps used by the broadband team to process the data. Additionally, the methodology document details the various techniques used throughout the process, as well as statistics, metrics and conclusions based on data processed for the current delivery.

Advertised wireline broadband service in Colorado based on data collected directly from Internet Service Provider (ISPs). Data is categorized into service levels defined by various download and upload speeds. Data was published in April 2022 and depicts service as of December 31, 2021

This layer represents the OIT Community Anchor Institutions (CAI) data set. ''Community Anchor Institutions'' consist of schools, libraries, medical and healthcare providers, public safety entities, community colleges and other institutions of higher education, and other community support organizations and entities. These locations may not offer broadband availability to the public (although most libraries and many schools, and community centers do) but offer an opportunity for policy makers to understand where community anchor institutions which have broadband access are located; this can help in identifying challenges and opportunities to reaching connectivity goals. Although it is constantly being improved upon, ultimately we aim for this data set to evolve into a reliable resource for emergency response services.

Web Map Services - Please note that the endpoint below also offers links for JSON, SOAP, WMS, and WFS. Additionally, the "Google Earth" link allows the user to download a KMZ file representative of the CAI data set.
