Mike is talking about "deployment data" (represented as covered
census blocks) wouldn't come from billing system. This wouldn't come
from a billing system, it would come from something like a
towercoverage.com 477 export. Blocks are generally very small. Plat would export subscriber data, which would be by tract, by plan. Tracts are generally much larger than blocks, especially in rural areas. That being said, there shouldn't ever be any subscriber data where that tract doesn't have several blocks represented as covered by your deployment data, at least not anything grossly far away. It's certainly possible that there are customers where your deployment data doesn't represent (maybe you did a point to point link to a large ranch of some kind, have 4-5 services out there, but never added that ranch AP to your coverage - you'll have customers in that tract, but no deployment data showing you cover it). One ISP I work with uses Plat and in some cases, the ISP only has the customer's billing address in Plat, which is out of state. When we export for 477, they show subscribers out of state in areas the deployment data doesn't support. We manually clean these up; we sort the 477 export by FIPS, find the out of area ones, "move" them to other populous FIPS locations and submit it. It's not perfect and generally less than 1%, but it does make it cleaner. If a "service address" had been entered in Plat with the correct local address, it would have geocoded it correctly, ignoring the billing address. Jesse DuPont Network
