National Broadband Data

Description

The National Broadband Data represents coverage information across Canada for existing broadband service providers with their associated technology types. The coverage information is aggregated and deployed over a grid of hexagons, which cover areas of roughly 25 square km each. Broadband Internet service availability is provided for download/upload speed markers (5/1, 10/2, 25/5 and 50/10 Mbps) where more than 75% of total dwellings covered within the hexagon have access to broadband service offerings meeting these markers. In order to improve the granularity of the broadband data, ISED and the CRTC are providing aggregated and anonymous broadband services data based on the pseudo-household statistical model, hence achieving higher precision in depicting the broadband Internet service availability. This information is available below under the "NBD PHH Speeds" resource. For more information on the pseudo-household statistical model, refer to the [Pseudo-Household Demographic Distribution](https://open.canada.ca/data/en/dataset/b3a1d603-19ca-466c-ae95-b5185e56addf "Pseudo-Household Demographic Distribution") dataset. A representation of broadband services per 250m road segments is now available for download under the “NBD Roads” resource. To generate this dataset, the NBD PHH Speeds information was projected over the nearest road arc from Statistics Canada’s Road Network File, and those roads were spliced in approximately 250m segments. **NEW:** The data has been augmented to include new presentation layers as published on the [National Broadband Map](https://www.ic.gc.ca/app/sitt/bbmap/hm.html?lang=eng "National Broadband Map").
