I found a site where I could download a complete list of BEAD locations, but 
they removed the actual coordinates and addresses--I presume for privacy.  
Meanwhile, a different site has all of the CAF funded address points, with the 
addresses and coordinates intact.  Make up your minds Federal Guys.

Yep!

RDOF is CBG
BEAD is location fabric, individual houses
Reconnect is a PFSA, a polygon(s) defining the project area

To maximize government waste.  Do the task three different ways to avoid being 
able to share resources.  Oh and that FCC fabric is tax payer funded meanwhile 
ISPs are expected to be the ones to correct the data set.

The earlier ones were polygons, blocks and such, but the Bead is locations so 
you'd be looking at mixed data as well.

And then you’d need the list of defaults.  Apparently RDOF had a bunch of those.

RDOF, BEAD, and Reconnect are there different government agencies.  Of course 
they are not all in one spot.  You can download those three from three spots.

If you want to start including states, it'll be more places to look.  Local 
stuff...jesus...

Is there any consolidated map of federal broadband grant funded areas?  A shape 
file or KMZ would be ideal.
