target="_blank">http://www.digitalarizona.gov/speedtest/</a><br><br>On behalf of the Digital Arizona Program (DAP) ATIC is encouraging you to<br>take the Internet Speed test today. DAP created an Internet Speed Test and<br>Survey on the Digital Arizona web portal to measure the upload and download<br>(connection) speeds at tens of thousands of locations (i.e. homes, offices,<br>etc.) around the State. The Speed Test is a simple “click here” web-link<br>(commonly used nationwide) with a display indicating connection speeds<br>(Mbps) at a particular location and moment in time.<br><br>The combination of data from large quantities of speed tests along with<br>answers from the related survey questions will be analyzed by the Digital<br>Arizona team to determine potential areas and/or communities that may be<br>poorly served. Together with initial device and location type questions,<br>after the Speed Test there are some optional questions to help us
learn<br>about what kind of Internet services folks are using and how those services<br>are being used. This will assist us with our goal of facilitating access to<br>better high-speed Internet service for ALL Arizonans, especially those<br>residing in the rural areas of the State.<br><br>Digital Arizona Program<br><br>The Digital Arizona Project is a federally funded grant program in the<br>Arizona Strategic Enterprise Technology (ASET) Office of the Arizona<br>Department of Administration (ADOA). The program is focused on facilitating<br>“better Internet” across Arizona, with better availability and increased<br>adoption and use. Better Internet is an amplifier for job creation, better<br>K-12 education, advances in Tele-health, and improving economic development<br>in Arizona. Increased supply will also help lower Internet costs for<br>everyone. We are asking for your assistance in helping us determine the<br>current quality of Internet access

For the results to be statistically significant we<br>need as many people doing the test in as many locations and on as many<br>devices as possible.
