TSSW provided GIS database design and conversion support for this leading-edge nationwide project.  This work included complex database design and processing tasks requiring extensive coordination with technical staff from the National States Geographic Information Council (NSGIC) and the National Telecommunications Information Administration (NTIA) to refine the initial NSGIC geodatabase model to be compatible with Congressional requirements for the submittal of broadband information.  We tested, and refined a very detailed workflow to process data coming from scores of different broadband providers into a standardized series of tables and geodatabase feature classes. Millions of records of raw data were processed, and almost 500,000 features were submitted to the NTIA bi-annually over the course of the project. The TSSW team’s database design, tracking mechanism, documentation and related analyses were acknowledged early on by the Geospatial Information Officer (GIO) of the Federal Communications Commission as an important contribution to the development and maintenance of the National Broadband Map
