ESAP has been designed as a robust data warehouse and advanced analytics solution tailored to meet the demands of service providers handling a large amount of Call Detail Records (CDRs). Through the application of state-of-the-art analytics techniques, *ESAP*® effectively uncovers patterns, trends, and correlations that often-times lie dormant within service providers' data repositories. By delving deep into the wealth of CDRs, telecommunication companies can acquire a better understanding of their customers, operations, and the dynamics of the market. This valuable knowledge empowers them to make informed decisions, adapt to changing circumstances, and effectively navigate the ever-evolving landscape of the industry.

This was a [significant problem](https://www.lightreading.com/broadband/group-urges-fcc-to-label-anchor-institutions-as-broadband-serviceable-locations/d/d-id/782012) with the initial FCC Fabric map, with many anchor institutions appearing as grey due to the FCC determining that most schools, libraries, and medical care facilities, are more likely to subscribe to customized, enterprise-grade internet service (as opposed to mass-market internet service), and therefore are not Broadband Serviceable Locations (BSL). The recently proposed [NTIA State Challenge Model](https://www.internetforall.gov/bead-challenge-process-policy)aims to address data inaccuracies of CAIs, with the introduction of a challenge allowing any CAI labeled as receiving 1 Gigabit service and as 'served' to contest this designation if their actual speeds are slower, which would classify them as 'unserved' and eligible for funding.  [Read More](https://blog.atso.com/how-to-gather-100-accurate-speed-data-of-anchor-institutions-in-your-county) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.atso.com/how-to-gather-100-accurate-speed-data-of-anchor-institutions-in-your-county#comments-listing) Topics: [BEAD](https://blog.atso.com/topic/bead), [Broadband Mapping](https://blog.atso.com/topic/broadband-mapping) ## [The Mapping Dilemma: How Can States Ensure They Get The Best 'Bang For Their Buck'?](https://blog.atso.com/the-mapping-dilemma-how-can-states-ensure-they-get-the-best-bang-for-their-buck) Posted by [John Sarkis](https://blog.atso.com/author/john-sarkis) on Apr 5, 2023, 11:31:52 AM - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) [![](https://blog.atso.com/hubfs/Using%20CAF%20Performance%20Data%20To%20Uncover%20Bottlenecks%20In%20Your%20Network%20(1).png)](https://blog.atso.com/the-mapping-dilemma-how-can-states-ensure-they-get-the-best-bang-for-their-buck) States are developing strategies to allocate the funding they receive from the BEAD program, which has a total budget of $42.5 billion to cover some of the costs of deploying broadband in unserved rural areas. However, this is complicated by concerns about the accuracy of the FCC National Broadband Map. Although the federal map will serve as the basis for allocating funds to each state from the BEAD program, states have the liberty to decide whether they wish to use the federal map for dispensing funds to relevant recipients or use other methods that utilize internal data.  [Read More](https://blog.atso.com/the-mapping-dilemma-how-can-states-ensure-they-get-the-best-bang-for-their-buck) 0 Comments [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.atso.com/the-mapping-dilemma-how-can-states-ensure-they-get-the-best-bang-for-their-buck#comments-listing) Topics: [Broadband](https://blog.atso.com/topic/broadband), [BEAD](https://blog.atso.com/topic/bead), [Broadband Mapping](https://blog.atso.com/topic/broadband-mapping) [All posts](https://blog.atso.com/all) ## Welcome to the ATS Blog!
