• fcc_compare_areasCompare Broadband Coverage Across Areasread-only

  Compares broadband coverage metrics across multiple geographies of the same type and returns a ranked table sorted by unserved or underserved population. Answers "which counties in this state have the worst broadband access?" and drives BEAD funding prioritization. Provide up to 50 geography IDs, or set compare_all_states=true for all 50 states + DC. Data is from FCC Form 477 (as of June 2021).

• fcc_find_underservedFind Underserved Areasread-only

  Finds geographic areas with limited or no broadband coverage at a given speed threshold, ranked by unserved population. The core tool for BEAD program analysis and broadband equity research. Accepts a state abbreviation to narrow scope or runs nationwide. Defaults to rural areas where underservice is most concentrated. Data is from FCC Form 477 (as of June 2021).

• fcc_geocode_blockGeocode Census Blockread-only

  Converts a latitude/longitude coordinate to a 15-digit census block FIPS code, plus county FIPS, county name, state FIPS, state code, and state name. This is the required prerequisite for fcc_search_availability since the broadband dataset is indexed by census block, not address. The block is resolved against 2010 census boundaries, the vintage the Form 477 deployment dataset is keyed by, so the returned blockFips can be passed straight to fcc_search_availability; a 2020-vintage block ID from another source will not match. Uses the FCC public Geo API — no authentication required.

• fcc_get_coverage_summaryGet Broadband Coverage Summaryread-only

  Returns a broadband coverage summary for a geography — population with zero, one, two, or three-plus providers at a given speed threshold, split by urban/rural and tribal/non-tribal segments. The primary tool for digital divide and equity analysis. Supports state, county, congressional district, census place, CBSA (metro area), tribal area, and national level. Data is from FCC Form 477 (as of June 2021). Use 100 Mbps as the speed threshold for BEAD program policy analysis.

• fcc_get_providerGet Provider Profileread-only

  Returns a national-level coverage profile for a specific holding company (by hoconum): technologies deployed and the population covered at each download speed tier. Population figures come from the FCC provider summary table and count each person once, regardless of how many technologies the provider uses to reach them. Use fcc_search_providers to find valid hoconum values. Data is from FCC Form 477 (as of June 2021).

• fcc_list_filing_periodsList Filing Periodsread-only

  Returns available data vintages: Form 477 filing periods (hardcoded Jun 2015 – Jun 2021, always available) and BDC as-of dates from the authenticated API (Jun 2022 onward, requires credentials). When hasBdcCredentials is true, call this before fcc_list_downloads to determine valid as_of_date values. Note: there is a data gap between June 2021 (last Form 477) and June 2022 (first BDC filing period).

• fcc_search_availabilitySearch Broadband Availabilityread-only

  Queries broadband providers and advertised speeds at a census block from FCC Form 477 data (as of June 2021). Answers "which ISPs serve this location and what speeds do they offer?" — the core tool for address-level broadband lookup. Requires a 15-digit census block FIPS code; use fcc_geocode_block to convert coordinates first. Data reflects ISP-reported availability at the block level, which may overstate actual coverage for some addresses.

• fcc_search_geographiesSearch Geographiesread-only

  Find census places and CBSAs (metro areas) by case-insensitive literal name substring in the 2021 FCC geography lookup. Keep ambiguous matches distinct and choose the geography_type and geography_id to pass to fcc_get_coverage_summary. Include a location qualifier in name to narrow results; CBSA codes do not encode state membership. Always queries live FCC Open Data, even with the Form 477 mirror enabled, and needs no BDC credentials. Follow nextOffset until absent; no total match count is computed.

• fcc_search_providersSearch Broadband Providersread-only

  Searches for ISPs by holding company name, filtered by state and technology type. Returns a deduplicated list of matching providers with hoconum identifiers for follow-up calls to fcc_get_provider. Answers "which ISPs serve Washington with fiber?" and "find all Comcast entities." Geographic filtering is state-level; sub-state granularity requires cross-referencing block data. Against the live FCC API the search reads a bounded window of deployment rows to find which holding companies match, so when scanTruncated comes back true the providers are a sample of the matches rather than every one of…
